JULES RONSIN | LIEGENDER WEIBLICHER AKT IN GRÜN
Est: €3,000 - €6,000
JULES RONSIN 1867 Chateaugiron - 1937 Rennes LIEGENDER WEIBLICHER AKT IN GRÜN Öl auf Leinwand. 80 x 180 cm (R. 92 x 193 cm). Oben rechts signiert. Part. Retuschen. Rahmen. Die Lose 2235-2275 bilden das seltene Beispiel einer Privatsammlung, die ein klares und schlüssiges Narrativ entfaltet. Abgesehen von einigen wenigen Genredarstellungen und Landschaften bildet ein Panorama der Aktmalerei des 19. Jahrhunderts ihren Kern - einer Epoche, in der dieses Genre eine seiner bedeutendsten Entwicklungsphasen erlebte. Der Akt im Kunstschaffen bewahrte stets eine besondere Bedeutung. Nach Durchlaufen der großen Epochen der Malerei - von obligatorischen akademischen Studien bis hin zu den höchsten Meisterwerken - überdauerte er selbst jene Zeit, als das 20. Jahrhundert Schritt für Schritt das Erbe der Antike abwarf, mythologische Sujets hinter sich ließ und die Doktrin der Naturnachahmung hinterfragte. Nach all diesen komplexen Wandlungen blieb gerade die Aktmalerei das wichtigste Bindeglied der Kunst zur klassischen Schule. Im 19. Jahrhundert traten in diese jahrhundertealte Tradition entscheidende Veränderungen ein: So wurde beispielsweise die Dominanz des weiblichen Aktes gegenüber dem männlichen nahezu absolut - eine Entwicklung, die sich auch in der vorliegenden Auswahl anschaulich widerspiegelt. Während der männliche Akt in den Lehrplänen der Kunstakademien eher als Instrument zum Ausdruck von Charakter und maskuliner Plastizität fortlebte (ein prägnantes Beispiel hierfür ist Los 2244), verfestigte sich für den weiblichen Körper endgültig die höchste ästhetische Rolle. Man war überzeugt, dass gerade der weibliche Akt die Idee des wahrhaft Schönen zum Ausdruck bringen könne, verankert in ruhiger Ausgewogenheit, Raffinesse und Formvollendung. Diese Kollektion bietet die seltene Gelegenheit nachzuvollziehen, wie dieser ästhetische Idealanspruch in der Praxis umgesetzt wurde, und offenbart die ganze Vielfalt der Sichtweisen von Künstlern des 19. Jahrhunderts auf den weiblichen Akt - von strenger akademischer Plastizität und romantischer Empfindsamkeit bis hin zu intimen Kabinettstudien. Provenienz: Privatsammlung, Düsseldorf.

Jules Alexandre GrÃ¼n (1868-1934) French, Lithograph Poster "Guide de l'Etranger Ã¡ Montmartre"
Est: $400 - $800
Jules Alexandre Grün (1868-1934) French, Lithograph Poster "Guide de l'Etranger á Montmartre". A vibrant Art Nouveau poster designed to welcome visitors to Paris’s Montmartre district. The composition features elegantly stylized figures and flowing, decorative lettering, capturing the bohemian charm and lively atmosphere of the neighborhood. Grün’s use of graceful lines, harmonious colors, and playful details conveys both the allure of Montmartre’s cafés, cabarets, and streets, and the cheerful optimism of Belle Époque Paris, making the poster both an artistic statement and a functional guide for tourists. Framed. Overall Size: 34 x 25 1/2 in. Sight Size: 24 x 16 1/2 in. Jules Alexandre Grün (1868-1938) was a French painter, poster artist, and designer associated with the Belle Époque and early 20th-century decorative arts. Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Grün worked in a style that blended academic precision with the elegance and charm of Art Nouveau, producing genre scenes, landscapes, and portraiture alongside his commercial work. He became particularly noted for his colorful, eye-catching posters and decorative illustrations, which combined fluid line, delicate color harmonies, and a keen sense of composition. Grün’s work reflects the refinement and vibrancy of Parisian visual culture in his era, balancing both aesthetic appeal and popular accessibility, and his posters remain sought after by collectors of Belle Époque graphic art.

The male figure is seen via his accoutrements, his tails merging seamlessly with the black background. Meanwhile, the two temptingly-clad ladies pop off the page in red and white, the flesh-toned color of the paper utilized for their peachy skin. In the background are two almost omnipresent figures in works by Grun: a set of policemen, identifiable as Fursy and Ropiquet, managers of the Treteau de Tabarin. Imp.

At the Pepiniere, we are being tempted by this saucy brunette to attend the year-end review, "I'm gonna tell your momma," a title remarkably similar to many popular cabaret reviews of the 1910s and 1920s-apparently, the threat of parental knowledge of one's lascivious deeds is a titillating, eternal theme.

Est: $1,200 - $1,500
Jules-Alexandre Grun Decadent's Concert 17.125 h x 21.5 w in (43 x 55 cm) The lascivious hijinks one expects from Grun aren't present in this woodblock-inspired black-on-sepia paper invitation for the Decadents cabaret. Of course, the Montmartre night is still young. But what is abundantly manifested is that anyone who was anyone from every walk of life was making a beeline for the decadently diversionary evening. "The Decadents cafe-concert was located at 16 bis rue Fontaine. Marguerite Duclerc, after having gained tremendous success at Ambassadeurs, took over direction [of the venue] in 1896. The establishment from that point on was called Concerts Duclerc" (Spectacle, p. 248). Literature: PAI-XXXVII, 338 This work will ship from Chicago, Illinois.

Jules-Alexandre Grun Glycya c. 1905 62.25 h x 46.375 w in (158 x 118 cm) One of Grun's rarest designs is also one of his most painterly, beautifully capturing a nearly-nude goddess as she kneels by a stream. The butterflies which flock to her ivory skin are mistaking its sweet smell for nectar: a result of using Glycya soap.

Jules-Alexandre Grun, Concert de la Pepiniere / Je vais le dire a ta mere
Est: $3,000 - $4,000
Jules-Alexandre Grun Concert de la Pepiniere / Je vais le dire a ta mere 1902 51.25 h x 36.75 w in (130 x 93 cm) Known for his bootylicious and buxom broads, this image by Grun does not fail to deliver his signature delights. At the Pepiniere, we are being tempted by this saucy brunette to attend the year-end review, "I'm gonna tell your momma," a title remarkably similar to many popular cabaret reviews of the 1910s and 1920s—apparently, the threat of parental knowledge of one's lascivious deeds is a titillating, eternal theme.

Jules-Alexandre Grun, Le Sourire / Cappiello aux Salons
Est: $1,700 - $2,000
Jules-Alexandre Grun Le Sourire / Cappiello aux Salons 1900 49.125 h x 34.375 w in (125 x 87 cm) "On October 28, 1899 Maurice Mery launches Le Sourire, to compete against Le Rire, which was very successful since its inception in 1894. As editor he hires Alphonse Allais, one of the masters of French humor and ex-manager of the Chat Noir from 1886 through 1891. Allais becomes the driving force of Le Sourire until his death in 1905. In order to increase sales, the magazine publishes a poster in 1905 in which a Grunette displays an issue of Le Sourire showing Alphonse Allais, caricatured by Cappiello, enthroned on the cover page. In the rear, on a black background, two town councilors are doubled up with laughter. A peculiar and unusual detail: a man's clenched fist is pulling on her red dress. In May 1905 Le Sourire announces the publication of a special plate: 'A Bonus-poster! We are pleased to offer this plate free of charge to our subscribers. No copy will ever be sold in the stores and it will attain additional value since it is the result of rare collaboration, especially with artists of such caliber.' One notes that the value of the posters was already a sales argument. Oddly enough, in view of what is said in the ad, this poster should have been relatively common—which is far from being the case. The answer lies perhaps in the fact that one was charged for the 'bonus' plate" (Grun, p. 108). Imp. Chaix, Paris Literature: Grun, p. 108; Cappiello, 229; PAI-XC, 258 This work will ship from Lambertville, New Jersey.

Jules-Alexandre Grun, Treteau de Tabarin / La Boite a Fursy
Est: $1,700 - $2,000
Jules-Alexandre Grun Treteau de Tabarin / La Boite a Fursy 1901 47 h x 34.375 w in (119 x 87 cm) "Although his cabaret was going tremendously well, Fursy was thirsty for revenge. His ex-partner, Ropiquet, had found no one of the same caliber as a replacement and was witnessing the collapse of his business. He finally went bankrupt in 1901. The owner of the premises, Lajunie, who had opened the first deluxe restaurant in Montmartre and who had made a fortune, contacted Fursy who wasted no time returning to Pigalle where he merged his two cabarets on June 17, 1901. Again the inevitable Grun is in charge of advertising. In the background he places his two previous posters and a radiant beauty, dressed in pale green with a hat bedecked with yellow flowers in the foreground. At this time his palette is growing richer and wider" (Grun, p. 38). Imp. Chaix, Paris Literature: Grun, p. 38; PAI-XCII, 232 This work will ship from Lambertville, New Jersey.
