Description
Alexis MOSSA (1844–1926). Villefranche Pass, The Quarry Path (26 May 1910) and The Fisherman’s Family on the Banks of the Marne (1863). Two watercolours on paper, one signed in the bottom left-hand corner and the other in the bottom right-hand corner. Both are titled on the reverse, one numbered 3966 and the other 0009. H_8 cm to 11 cm L_15 cm to 18.5 cm (visible area) We would like to thank Mrs Sylvie Lombart-Mossa, a descendant of the Mossa painters and President of the Association Symbolique Mossa, who has confirmed the authenticity of the watercolours depicting landscapes by Gustave-Adolphe Mossa and Alexis Mossa. The Association Symbolique Mossa aims to raise awareness of the Mossa painters and is committed to promoting the works of Alexis, the 100th anniversary of whose death we shall be commemorating in 2027. Note: A leading figure in Côte d’Azur painting and a master of watercolour, Alexis Mossa (a graduate of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and former curator of the Nice Museum) captured with great finesse the light and heritage of the landscapes of the County of Nice, the Provençal markets, and Italy.
