Small-8vo. 1 p. on bifolium. To the academic painter and art critic Charles-Olivier Merson, asking him for an invitation to the Exposition de Toulouse that was curated by Merson for his son-in-law, the marine painter André Delaistre: "Voulez-vous avoir la bonté d'envoyer une invitation pour l'exposition de Toulouse à mon gendre Mr André Delaistre [.]". - Little known today, Guillemet was a pioneer of impressionism and close to many important artists. He studied under Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Charles-François Daubigny, and Gustave Courbet. Other than many of his friends, Guillemet had a very successful entry to the Paris Salon in 1874, the monumental landscape "Bercy en décembre" and continued to exhibit successfully at the official Salon. When Cézanne first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1882, he was described as a pupil of Guillemet, which was certainly an exaggeration but Guillemet had introduced Cézanne to Manet. In 1868/69 Guillemet modeled for Manet's famous painting "The Balcony", which is why his face is certainly better known than his name and own work today. - Well preserved.

I shake your hand. Yours devotedly."A warm note of thanks from Sisley to the loyal physician who treated several Impressionist painters, including Monet, Pissarro, and Renoir, and who remained one of their steadfast friends and collectors.

Signac". Paul Signac [1863 - 1935]. French neo-impressionist painter who, working with Georges Seurat, helped develop the pointillist style. In 1884 he met Claude Monet & Georges Seurat. He was struck by the systematic working methods of Seurat & by his theory of colors & became Seurat's faithful supporter. Under his influence he abandoned the short brushstrokes of impressionism to experiment with scientifically juxtaposed small dots of pure color, intended to combine & blend not on the canvas but in the viewer's eye, the defining feature of pointillism. Many of Signac's paintings are of the French coast. He loved to paint the water. He left the capital each summer, to stay in the south of France in the village of Collioure or at St. Tropez.

Seref Akdik was born in 1899 and was primarily inspired by the 1900s and 1910s. The first decades of the twentieth century were characterized by vibrant developments in pictorial art. It was the era of post-Impressionism and of experimentation, including the first forays into Expressionism and Abstraction. Many different groups of artists or loosely associated communities of the avant-garde in a number of major cities around the world evolved different modes of these key innovations. The first twenty years of the Twentieth Century can be seen to be among the most productive, and are noted as the time in art history when modern and modernist ideas began to take hold of cultural production. The new order and rationality, alongside mechanization in modes of production, saw art's parallel discipline of architecture develop extraordinarily in the work of designers such as Le Corbusier and Gerrit Rietveld. It was the era of the Bauhaus and the idea of a common discipline across all modes of creative arts. Most, if not all, of the significant art movements we associate with modern and contemporary art, can be viewed to source many of their key founding philosophies in the astounding diversity of work produced during this time.
