Hughes de Beaumont

Hughes de Beaumont

Beaumont, Hughes de (1874-1947) was a French artist who produced work in the "intimiste" style which often depicted bourgeois settings. The term was coined - derisively, it seems - by Edouard Vuillard who used it to describe his own style. [Laurie Shannon, "The Country of our Friendship": Jewett's Intimist Art, "American Literature", Vol. 71, No. 2, (June 1999), pp 227.] Other practicioners include Maurice Lobre, René Georges Hermann-Paul, Henri Matisse, Rene Prinet and Ernest Laurent. The Intimists first collective exhibition was shown at Henry Grave's galleries in 1905. [The Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs, Vol. 7, No. 25. (Apr., 1905) ] The exhibition included several works by Hughes de Beaumont.
