AN OIL ON CANVAS BY GEORGETTE TAVE, LA MAISON MAURESQUE A JUAN. 73X54CM
PROVENANCE: CHRISTIES SALE PARIS JULY 2011.
In 1950, she moved to Paris to attend the Ecole des Beaux-Arts alongside Jean Souverbie. After her formative years, she worked successively in the studios of Fernand Leger, André Lhote and the Académie Jullian. An expressionist painter, she retained from her masters the use of color (a palette she deepened by working regularly in the South of France), but detached herself from Cubist modeling for softer contours and a suave rendering, closer to the works of Matisse (our painting). The most influential art critics supported her work, and she was nominated several times for the Prix Othon Friesz.
In 1960, her first major solo exhibition was held in a large gallery in Paris's Faubourg Saint-Honoré district, and in 1966 she executed the painting that would make her world-famous: the portrait of Coco Chanel.
This marked the start of a career that would see her exhibit in Cannes, Reims, Deauville, Monaco, Nice... and even Tokyo. In the 70s, she exhibited regularly and with great success in England, Switzerland and Germany.
