Setting Sun / School Of Algiers
Artist: Eugène Deshayes 1862/1939
A pupil of Gérôme, his technique was nevertheless more influenced by Léon Tanzi. Our native Algerian established his workshop in the upper Mustapha district in 1892. Ascetic, tireless worker with restrained sensitivity, he must be considered as a major artist of Algerian production. He will never give in to fashions and ease, his work is ethnographic, and he was the memory with Sintés of old Algiers. He is to the school of Algiers what Toshio Bando is to the school of Paris, an immense talent concealed by a timid and withdrawn character. Signed and dated 1905, the Japanese influence is evident both in the asserted print format and in the treatment of the subject. Small old restorations.
