      VIOLET MEGE (French, born Algeria 1889) Still Life with Tambourine and Jugs Oil on canvas 18 x 22 inches (45.7 x 55.9 cm) Signed upper left: Violet Mege PROVENANCE: Private collection Violet Mege, who was trained both at the Academie Julian and the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, first made a name for herself painting remarkable, light-filled genre scenes of the women of Algiers. By 1917 she had made her way to the American Southwest where she participated in the inaugural exhibition of the Taos Society of Artists held in 1917 at the Hotel Majestic, Taos, New Mexico. Her attraction to strong lighting effects and powerful color and brushwork won her many opportunities to exhibit in the United States. She also worked in Mexico.
