Maurice Prendergast

Still Life with Flowers, 1910 - 1913, oil on panel, 48.9 x 38.1 cm, private collection. 

Maurice Brazil Prendergast was a U.S. Post-Impressionist artist who worked in oil, watercolor, and monotype. He developed a highly personal style, with boldly contrasting, jewel-like colors, and flattened, patternlike forms rhythmically arranged on a canvas. Forms were radically simplified and presented in flat areas of bright, unmodulated color. His paintings have been aptly described as tapestry-like or resembling mosaics.

Jean-François Millet

The Bouquet of Margueritas, 1866, pastel on paper, 70.3 x 83 cm, Musee d’Orsay, Paris.

Jean-François Millet was a French painter noted for his scenes of peasant farmers and nature. He can be categorized as part of the naturalism and realism movements.
Millet was an important source of inspiration for Vincent Van Gogh, particularly during his early period. Millet and his work are mentioned many times in Vincent’s letters to his brother Theo. Millet’s late landscapes would serve as influential points of reference to Claude Monet’s and Georges Seurat’s paintings.
