Hippolyte Leroy
Hippolyte Leroy (1876-1943) - A view of Blankenberghe, 1873

1873

About the Item

Oil on canvas Signed and dated lower left: " Hip Le Roy, Blankenberghe, 1873," This painting captures the serene vista of Blankenberghe, inviting viewers into the essence of coastal life. Leroy has conjured a scene alive with the harmonious convergence of sea and shore. The composition presents a delicate balance, with on the left side beach cabins and on the right the vast expanse of the sea that stretched outward. Amidst this picturesque panorama, a scene of human activity unfold. Bathed in the soft, diffused light characteristic of impressionism, figures frolic in the ocean's embrace. Strollers grace the sandy shore, their leisurely steps punctuated by the occasional laughter that drifts upon the breeze. Hippolyte Leroy was a Belgian artist. He mainly designed medals and sculptures, such as the equestrian statues that adorned the entrance to the World Exhibition of 1885 in Antwerp.

  • "Solebury Valley"
    By William Langson Lathrop
    Located in Lambertville, NJ
    Signed lower right. Complemented by a period frame. William L. Lathrop (1859-1938) Deemed “Father of the New Hope Art Colony”, William Langson Lathrop was born in Warren, Illinois. He was largely self-taught, having only studied briefly with William Merritt Chase in 1887, at the Art Students League. Lathrop first moved east in the early 1880s, and took a job at the Photoengraving Company in New York City. While there, he befriended a fellow employee, Henry B. Snell. The two men became lifelong friends and ultimately, both would be considered central figures among the New Hope Art Colony. Lathrop's early years as an artist were ones of continuing struggle. His efforts to break through in the New York art scene seemed futile, so he scraped enough money together to travel to Europe with Henry Snell in1888. There he met and married an English girl, Annie Burt. Upon returning to New York, he tried his hand at etching, making tools from old saw blades...
