Est: $40,000 - $60,000
Joseph Raphael (American, 1869-1950) Children of the Artist, c. 1920-24 oil on canvas signed Joe Raphael (lower left); titled and inscribed (on the stretcher) 57 3/4 x 59 1/4 inches. The present lot is #P-316 in the Joseph Raphael Catalogue Raisonné (unpublished), compiled by Dr. Phyllis Hattis. Provenance: Albert M. Bender, San Francisco, California, prior to 1926 Ex. coll. California Palace of the Legion of Honor, San Francisco, California, gift from the above An unusually large work for Joseph Raphael, Children of the Artist, c. 1920-26, captures the unique individuality of the three girls, likely his youngest daughters, Johanna (Joky) with blue eyes and brown hair, at left, and the middle sisters, Elizabeth (Liesbeth) and Marie-Jeanne (Dany), at the right. Their white dresses appear to shimmer in the sun, as they gaze out at the viewer inquisitively underneath the short brims of their stylish cloche hats. The surrounding garden in which the children stand is described in brilliant hues of blue, yellow, and red, applied with lively, broad brushstrokes that dance across the canvas. The dynamic surface and clear, high key colors reveal the artist as a foremost exponent of pure French Impressionism. A native of San Francisco, Raphael found his calling as an artist in his early twenties after enrolling at the California School of Design (now the San Francisco Art Institute), where he studied under Arthur Mathews and Douglas Tilden. Like many of his artist peers, his formative decades abroad began at the Académie Julian in Paris in 1903 under Jean-Paul Laurens. It was here that he fell in with several American artists including William Clapp, who was later associated with the Society of Six, a group of artists who sought to create a modernist style that was uniquely about California. Beginning in the early 1910s, Raphael split his time between Paris and the artist colony of Laren, Holland, where he met and married Johanna Jongkindt in 1912. The couple subsequently moved to a cottage in Uccle, a suburb of Brussels. It was in Uccle that the artist found his signature style. According to art historian William Gerdts, Raphael's methodology changed radically after his move to Uccle: “He began to paint colorful outdoor scenes, sometimes including figures and often set in fields of flowers and vividly rendered gardens. Raphael applied paint in large dabs, creating decorative Post-Impressionist tapestries. Frequently he flattened space and simplified forms, utilizing structural concepts related to the art of Paul Cézanne. At the same time, his tendencies also involved pointillist brushwork inspired by the art of Georges Seurat. His approach related to the heightened colorism, simplification, and decorative patterning of Paul Gauguin and van Gogh; the latter was the Post-Impressionist with whom he shared the greatest affinity.” (W.H. Gerdts, Joseph Raphael (1869-1950): An Artistic Journey, New York, Spanierman Gallery, 2003, p. 20) Raphael's children, his garden, and home were frequent subjects during these years, usually depicted with expressive, thick brushstrokes loaded with bright colors, as exemplified by Children of the Artist. This vibrant style earned the artist the silver medal at the 1915 Panama Pacific International Exposition, where six of his canvases were displayed. Although Raphael lived and worked in Europe for many years, he maintained close ties with the San Francisco art community. This was in part due to the patronage of Albert M. Bender (1866-1941), his loyal art dealer and a great patron of the arts, particularly in the first quarter of the 20th century. Bender owned Children of the Artist prior to 1926, and of the multitude of Raphael works he owned and later sold, this painting remained in his personal collection for many years. It can easily be understood why, given the dazzling color, impressive scale, and exuberant movement of the artwork. This is the artist at the height of his powers—as William Clapp wrote: "In my opinion Raphael is the greatest artist California has produced, in fact he is close to being the greatest Impressionist that the whole nation has produced."

Joseph Morris Raphael (1869-1950) 'Portrait of Johanna Frederika Jantina Blok-Rinke (1901-1957)', signed lower right, canvas. H. 76 cm. W. 54 cm. Madam Blok-Rinke was married to Arie Marie Blok (1900-1945), Raphael's psychiatrist, who received the painting as payment for a treatment around 1935. They lived in The Hague, The Netherlands. Johanna was the daughter of Jan Rinke (1863-1922), an artist who designed 'Pietje Bell', a famous character in Dutch children's books, movies and a musical. Raphael was an American Impressionist painter who went to Paris in 1903. After his study he settled in Laren, The Netherlands. Because he was Jewish, he returned to San Francisco in 1939. Especially his colourful garden- and orchard views were sold for considerable amounts, for example 'Tea in the orchard' was sold for $ 440.000 (hammer price) in 2019.
