Georges VILLA (1883-1865) Le Grand Duc Alexis sur son lit de mort Ensemble de deux dessins originaux à la pierre noir et rehauts de blanc Signés , situés et datés « Gorges Villa, Paris, 15 novembre 1908 » . Dimensions : 50 x 33 cm On joint la lithographie de même sujet (65 x 50 cm). À 21 ans, alors que Georges Villa étudias à l’Académie Julian, il se lie d’amitié avec le lieutenant-colonel Osnobichine, attaché militaire russe à Paris. Enthousiasmé par le talent de Villa, Osnobichine l’invite à passer un mois à Nice où séjournent pour leurs « vacances » de nombreux princes et officiers russes. Plusieurs d’entre eux lui demandent alors de faire leur portrait, entre autres, le Grau-duc Boris, cousin du Tsar Nicolas II qui, l’année suivante, l’invite chez lui, en Russie, à Peterhof, Tsarkoïé-Siélo, Saint-Petersbourg et Moscou. Ce séjour de 1905 au cours duquel il va vivre dans l’intimité des grands de la cour impériale va durer sept mois. La compagnie de Georges Villa est recherchée ; il se lie d’amitié avec le Grand-duc Alexis. Жорж ВИЛЛА (1883-1865) Великий князь Алексей на смертном одре Набор из двух оригинальных рисунков, бумага, уголь, усиленный мелом. Подпись, местонахождение и дата: «Вилла Горж, Париж, 15 ноября 1908 года». Размеры: 50 х 33 см. Прилагается литография с тем же сюжетом (65 х 50 см). В 21 год, когда Жорж Вилла учился в Академии Жюлиана, он подружился с подполковником Оснобичиным, российским военным атташе в Париже. Воодушевленный талантом Виллы, Основошишин приглашает его провести месяц в Ницце, где останавливаются на «каникулы» многие русские князья и офицеры. Некоторые из них тогда просили его сделать их портрет, в том числе великий князь Борис, двоюродный брат царя Николая II, который в следующем году пригласил его к себе домой в Россию, в Петергоф, Царское Село, Санкт-Петербург и Москву. Это пребывание в 1905 году, во время которого он жил в окружении знатных людей императорского двора, продолжалось семь месяцев. Компания Жоржа Вильи была весьма популярна; он сдал другом великого князя Алексея.

Est: $1,000 - $1,500
This is an exceptional poster created during the very early days of aviation. Father Time races across the globe, a bag of coins in hand, as a plane with bird features tails him closely behind.

Georges Emile Marie Villa (1883-1965) was a French cartoonist, caricaturist, engraver, lithographer and illustrator. He studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Francais. He served in World War I as an Air Force Captain. Prior to the war he had established himself as portrait painter. In the 1920's he found success in the graphic arts. Villa illustrated popular fiction as well as advertising posters in the figurative style of Leonetto Cappiello. He is known for his erotic drawings in charcoal and pastel, which is can be seen in this artwork for Vita-Raisin Lemale. Villa is a recipient of the Knights of the Legion of Honor.

ARTIST: GEORGES VILLA (1883-1965) SIZE: 22 3/8 x 30 1/2 in./57 x 77.5 cm DESCRIPTION: Today, a flight from Paris to New York takes about 7 hours and 45 minutes. But in 1930, that same flight path amounted to a whopping 37 hours, and it was an enormous feat of the era. After many attempts to complete the Paris to New York route, French aviator Dieudonné Costes succeeded with the help of a copilot in their plane named “The Question Mark.” Here, Villa addresses the pessimists of the time with historic aviation mile markers leading up to that 1930 flight.

In the early days of aviation, competitive meets proved to be incredibly popular events and posters were used to advertise them. Here, several flying machines, their wings illuminated by the fiery orange of the setting sun, soar above the famous Rouen Cathedral and the city's winding river and hills. In the center of the image is the personification of flying machines and perhaps the "Spirit of Flight" herself - "a robed female figure spreading her wings in emulation of a speeding monoplane" (Looping the Loop. 59). Looping the Loop pl. 38, L'Histoire de l'Aviation p. 55.

ORIGINAL VINTAGE FOOD POSTER RAISIN BY GEORGES VILLA
Est: $2,000 - $2,500
Raisin by Georges Villa is a c.1925 French advertisement for Vita-Raisin Lemale, a grape preservative. Here, Villa paints an alluring advertisement for grape jelly. A fashionable woman squeezes every bit of grape vitamin from the fruit to make her jelly. The artwork is reminiscent of Leonetto Cappiello's popular figurative illustration style of the time. Georges Emile Marie Villa (1883-1965) was a French cartoonist, caricaturist, engraver, lithographer and illustrator. He studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français. He served in World War I as an Air Force Captain. Prior to the war he had established himself as portrait painter. In the 1920's he found success in the graphic arts. Villa illustrated popular fiction as well as advertising posters in the figurative style of Leonetto Cappiello. He is known for his erotic drawings in charcoal and pastel, which is can be seen in this artwork for Vita-Raisin Lemale. Villa is a recipient of the Knights of the Legion of Honor.
