ANGE JACQUES SUPPARO (Marseille, 1870-1948). "Portrait of Sarah Bernhardt". Watercolor on paper mounted on canvas. Restored Signed. Measurements: 33 x 56 x 2 cm.

ANGE JACQUES SUPPARO (Marseille, 1870-1948). "Portrait of Sarah Bernhardt". Watercolor on paper mounted on canvas. Restored Signed. Measurements: 33 x 56 x 2 cm. The work of Ange Supparo, notably influenced by that of the medieval-feminine universe of Lucien Victor Guirand de Scévola, is palpable in this feminine portrait in all its splendor. It is very likely that she is the actress Sarah Bernhardt, whom she was able to meet in person thanks to her relationship with the painter Louise Abbèma, Bernhardt's sentimental partner. Ange Supparo exhibited in Paris at the Salon des Artistes Français and at the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. He was also an official painter for the French Ministry of Colonies, later resided in Madagascar and founded the School of Fine Arts of Antananarivo in 1913. In April 1900 Ange Supparo was the subject of a monographic exhibition entitled "Evocations of Women" at the Vignon Gallery in Paris. Several of the artist's works are now kept at the Musée du Quai Branly.

ANGE SUPPARO (1870- ) TOURNEE DU THEATRE DE LA RENAISSANCE / MONTMARTRE. 62x45 inches. Publicite Wall, Paris.

ANGE SUPPARO (1870- ) TOURNEE DU THEATRE DE LA RENAISSANCE / MONTMARTRE.

62 1/2x45 1/2 inches. Publicite Wall, Paris. Condition B+: restoration and restored losses in corners and margins; top margn and right margin trimmed; unobtrusive vertical and horizontal folds. To our knowledge, this is the first copy of this poster ever to have surfaced. It is advertising the travelling show from the Theatre de la Renaisance, for the production of a comedy about the gay Montmartre of the 1890's. The playwright, Pierre Frondaie, was a popular French writer who would become famous thanks to a best seller of the 1920's "L'Homme a I'Hispano" (The Man With the Hispano Suiza). Ange Supparo, who never designed another poster, despite this spectacular image, was an Official Painter of the Colonies (as appointed by the French Government), and was the founder of the Art College of Tannanarive, in Madagascar. The image is replete with all the evocative elements of the crazy and exciting Montmartre life of the 1890's: the landmark Moulin Rouge and Moulin de la Galette, an old top-hatted bourgeois carrying a winsome dancing girl on his shoulder and, lurking behind them, an unscrupulous man smoking a cigarette. A great image that captures all the nostalgia that Montmartre already held for the public and further cemented the licentious, historic and seedy reputation of the neighborhood for generations to come.
