Henri Farre, French / American 1871-1934 Portrait of a woman, head and shoulders, wearing pink; oil on canvas, signed and dated 'HFARRE. 96' (centre right), 41 x 32.6 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: Farre studied at the Ã‰cole des Beaux-Arts in Paris under Gustave Moreau (1826-1898). After his education, he moved to Buenos Aires and painted society portraits and landscapes, and it is likely that the present work was conceived during this time. While abroad, he submitted paintings for the Paris Salon every year from 1897 until 1914. With the outbreak of the First World War, he returned to France and was commissioned to paint the aviation forces and the aerial battles they participated in. As a result he received the awards of the Legion d'Honneur and the Croix de Guerre.

Biography: Henri Farre gained international fame for being the first artist to capture a first hand view of aerial combat during World War I, which he did as an observer bombadier, producing a series of more than 170 aviation paintings. However, the French born artist was classically trained and also produced a number of portraits, landscapes and still lifes. He attended the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, and studied with Gustave Moreau. Farre exhibited regularly in the Paris Salons and lived for awhile in Buenos Aires prior to World War I. After the war, Farre moved to Chicago, where he resumed painting more traditional subjects. Provenance: The Estate of James W. Perkins, Jr., Nashville, Tennessee.
