If you have always wanted a Edouard Cortes or a E. Galen Laloue but did not want to spend 25-50,000, then Schaeffer is a great alternative. He was a contemporary of Cortes. He is a listed french artist with the same high quality look as Cortes. Henri Alexis Schaeffer was born in Paris, France in early August of 1900. A student at the Ecole Nationale des Beaux Arts in Paris, Schaeffer studied painting under thehand of the master Cormon. Schaeffers earlier paintings consisted primarily of architectural studies of classical monuments and religious landmarks. Was a member of and exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français beginning in 1934. Schaeffer mainly painted urban Parisien scenes. Schaeffer was a Post-Impressionist, the art movement following Impressionism and Neo-Impressionism. The style showed a greater concern for expression, structure and form than did Impressionism. While the use of light is still important, it is strong and focused, as opposed to soft and diffused and the use of color is also strong and pure. In this ingenuity there was a certain measure of retroactivity inherent to the nature of his later work. The paintings depict Paris subjects and landmarks, yet the Paris he portrays is the Paris of an earlier day; carriages, gaslights, women in clothing styled as it was in the first decades of this century. It has been suggested that Schaeffer was a painter of the Paris of his childhood. Henri Alexis Schaeffer remained in Paris throughout his life and died there in 1975. The artist was a member of the Salon des Artistes Francais from 1934.
