Paul Ranson: A collection of 101 works (HD)

Description: "Paul Elie Ranson (French, 1864–1909) was a painter belonging to the group of late 19th century artists known as Les Nabis. Adopting the calling of “prophets,” Ranson and his contemporaries strove to demonstrate an artistic style that, while stemming from Impressionism, was influenced by Symbolism, Art Nouveau, and Japanese prints. Born in Limoges, France, Ranson began his studies at the École des Arts Décoratifs, and later transferred to Paris’ Académie Julian in 1886. Around 1890, he and fellow student Paul Sérusier (French, 1863–1927) formed Les Nabis, using his living room as the monthly meeting spot. While their work was influenced by Paul Gaugin (French, 1848–1903), they cultivated an aesthetic all their own, not only in artistic style but culturally as well, with the development of an argot of artistic vocabulary, introduced by Ranson. Although a talented painter, Ranson’s work favored the decorative arts, designing and executing with his wife many tapestries such as Femmes en Blanc (c.1895), now in the Musée d’Orsay’s collection. In his paintings, Ranson favored exotic and emblematic themes that exemplified the interaction between humans and nature, illustrated in Nabi Landscape (1890). He also utilized the stylizing effect of flat, bold colors and simplified drawing—an approach shared amongst the Nabis. The Durand-Ruel group show of March 1899 marked a decade for the group and its success. In 1908, he founded his own school with his wife, the Académie Ranson, to teach Nabi aesthetic, ideas, and techniques. Ranson died the following year leaving his wife to run the school, which continued into the early 1950s."
