Floral Still life of flowers in a vase By New York's Lucie Bayard, an exhibition of her paintings at the MacDowell Club in 1915 for “painters trying their wings in the open” suggests a time somewhere 1899 (Brooklyn Daily Eagle 13 April 1915: 6). She studied with George Luks and Robert Henri at the Art Students League, (1919). Likewise, she was the subject of George Bellows’ “Lucie” (1915) and remained good friends with the family. Her work appeared at the Society of Independent Artists (1917), the Allison Gallery (1945), and at various Woodstock shows. In 1951 she had a solo exhibition at the Mollie Higgins Smith Gallery, Woodstock, where a review praised her pastels for possessing “an unusual quality of depth and rich strong color not normally associated with the delicate medium. Miss Bayard’s painting – the flowers …possess vitality that contributes animation to each canvas – while their soundness of tactile substance does not prevent the impression of their fragile ephemeral character. She has a rich sense of color. Her work is modern and spirited – a vitality which flows, perhaps from the rapidity of execution and reveals a sure and personal touch. The painting is approximately 18 3/4 X 20 3/4" with the frame without the frame 17 3/4" X 15 3/4" signed lower right Lucie Bayard very good used condition with some scattered loss of paint but still a lovely painting nice bright colors a great addition for your collection.
