PESKÉ Jean PESKÉ

1870-1949 Russian painter Russian Artist XIXth-XXth century...

Jean Peské first carried out his studies at the Art School of Kiev. Then, between 1886 and 1889, he took lessons at the Fine Arts School of Odessa and finally went to the Fine Arts School in Warsow.

Afterwards, Peské inherited from his father when he was no older than 21 and used his financial means to emigrate to France in 1891.

There, in France, Jean Peské got inscribed to take lessons from the Académie Julien, where he was under the direction of Jean-Paul Laurens or even Benjamin Constant. He made friends with Polish people from France's Capital, including who was to become the famous Marie Curie, who he kept close links for a long time. Peské also became one of Guillaume Apollinaire's friends.

At the Académie Julian, Peské became acquainted with Seignac, Pissaro, Bonnard and Vuillard.

Influenced by G. Seignac, Jean Peské tried pointillism. Then, Jean M. Peské soon became one of the Nabis during 1895 to 1900 and hod common exhibitions with Guillaume Seignac, Pierre Bonnard and Vuillard at the Parc of Bouteville.

As the XXth century began, Peské joined the Impressionnists.

He exhibited his works many times from 1895 onwards, whether it was at the Salon des Indépendants, at the Fall Salon, and, later on, in the biggest galleries.

Peské obtained through his artworks a major fame during the years 1920 to 1940.

During both wars, Peské had very consequential customers  like Hennesy or Llinas. He also showed his works to George Clemenceau, one more of his admirers.

The Chalcographie of the Louvre bought his quite a number of engravings.

 

 

The artistic techniques of Jean Peské are various.

Peské painted with oil, watercolor, he engraved and dew. He also put Indian ink.

He particularly admired Claude Monet, who happened to influence him.

He though managed to have his own personal style and made beautiful landscapes, probably inspired by time he spent in the Fontainebleau forest as well as the mediterranean coast...
