100 beautiful erotic pictures by Henri Lebasque by Yuri Karminsky

From the present work it is clear that Lebasque shared some of the ideas that these artists were exploring during that period, at the high point of Fauvism. Lebasque had initially traveled to the South to stay with Henri Manguin, who was working in close contact with Henri Matisse at the time. In 1924, he moved to Le Cannet, where his friend Pierre Bonnard would buy a house two years later.

When he went to Saint-Tropez in 1906, by contrast, this marked the beginning of a love affair which would continue for much of the rest of his life. Until that point, Lebasque had seldom traveled, aside from brief trips to London, Madrid and Venice. However, from 1906 onwards, these subjects started to gain a new luster thanks to his exposure to the South of France. He was already held in high regard for his lyrical images of family life or children playing. He was a friend of the Neo-Impressionists and the Nabis alike, and was rumored to have had his first art lesson from Camille Pissarro. The artist had already been a presence in the Parisian art world for some time, having participated repeatedly in various exhibitions. La sieste à Saint-Tropez was painted in 1906, at an important juncture in the career of Lebasque. Lebasque died at Cannet, Alpes Maritimes in 1937.Christine Lenoir and Maria de la Ville Fromoit have confirmed the authenticity of this work.

He worked on the decorations at the theatre of the Champs-Elysées and of the Transatlantique sealiner. Lebasque had some commercial success during his lifetime. Other travels included the Vendée, Normandy, and Brittany. His time in South of France would lead to a radical transformation in Lebasque’s paintings, changing his colour palette forever. Lebasque also became friends with artists such as Raoul Dufy, Louis Valtat, and Henri Manguin, the last of whom introduced Lebasque to the South of France. Two years later, a group of artists exhibited there including Georges Rouault, André Derain, Henri Ottmann, Édouard Vuillard, and Matisse. Lebasque was a founding member of the Salon d'Automne in 1903 with his friend Henri Matisse and exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants. From his first acquaintance with Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, Lebasque learnt the significance of a colour theory which stressed the use of complementary colours in shading. Lebasque's vision was coloured by his contact with younger painters, especially Édouard Vuillard and Pierre Bonnard, founders of Les Nabis, a group of Intimist painters that first favoured the calm and quietude of domestic subject matter.
