Description
Émile BERNARD (1826–1897), ATTRIBUTED TO. Portrait of Mr Albert Chasseray, circa 1925. Oil on cardboard (varnish discoloured, minor losses). Unsigned. 41 × 35 cm. Accompanied by an exhibition booklet for the Émile Bernard exhibition at the Charpentier Gallery from 26 May to 13 June 1926, inscribed to Mr Chasseray: “To Chasseray, who wishes to be a man of the woods… these solemn, engraved woods, E. Bernard”, and an engraved woodcut enhanced with brown wash, *La Ballade des pendus* (as is, with sun damage and stains). PROVENANCE: Collection of Mr Albert Chasseray, then passed down through the family. HISTORY: Mr Albert Chasseray (1894–1976) was an actor at the Comédie Française and the somewhat eccentric architect behind the Moulin Joyeux in Loué, in the Sarthe. There, he erected, amongst other things, a colossal cement dragon, the Dragon de la Calomnie, standing 15 metres tall. The site was unfortunately destroyed in 1985.
