French Naturalist Painters from a Private European Collection
Wednesday 26 March 2025 14:00
Running alongside the Modern British & 20th Century Art auction on Wednesday, 26th March, ‘French Naturalist Painters from a Private European Collection’ presents an exemplary selection of European landscape painting. Last showcased at The Fleming Collection in 2012, this meticulously curated collection—privately held for decades—offers a profound reflection of the Naturalist movement’s deep connection to the observed world. Featuring works by Willy Eisenschitz, Ginès Parra and Gaston Balande, these paintings masterfully blend the precision of academic training with the immediacy of plein-air painting, capturing the nuanced interplay of light, atmosphere and the movement of everyday life.
