A still life painted in a Post-Impressionist and Realism style, depicting fruit, serving items, a jug, bottle, and other forms. Artist signature to lower right HENRI BIVA. Presented in a gilt wood frame. Henri was a student of Leon Louis Antoini Janzi and Alexandre Nozal at the French Academy. At that time William Adolphe Bouguereau, Benjamin Constant and Jules Lefebvre were his instructors. It was this influence that explains the controlled style of Henri Biva. The Academy had very strict attitudes toward paintings. It was this rigid attitude that divided the Academic painters and the Impressionists. Biva was nominated to the Salon des artists Francois in l903, l904 and l905. He was elected to Chevalier in the Legion of Honor in 1900. Overall Size: 26 x 31 in. Sight Size: 22 x 28 in. #1587
