Stamp by Henri Lebasque
fictionnal stamp
The publication of a postal stamp is often a homage paid by a nation to a place, an event, a remarkable cause or a character which count. The painters and other artists do not escape from this rule. Some are however "forgotten" of postal art. Here, gathered below (French or foreign), emitted stamps (206) or simple studies of stamp (224) in homage to the artists represented on our website. The first French stamp was emitted in 1849, England preceded us by ten years. There is often a share of voyage in this small form of shape paper. The stamp circulates, sails, flies away, it makes dream, then dream a little. M.C.
When the stamp is really emitted, the artist name is preceded of an asterisk (*). It is certain that we do not know each stamp emitted for such or such artist; do not hesitate with us to make known them!

A tribute to Henri Lebasque
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
En août 1937, Henri Lebasque s’éteint au Cannet (Alpes-Maritimes) où, attiré par la lumière et les paysages « pleins de charme », il s’était installé dans les années 1880. Il repose au cimetière des Anges, là encore voisin de son ami Pierre Bonnard. En hommage à sa mémoire, une aster.
"Lebasque est un artiste qui "regarde et voit ». Tel est son mérite. On reconnaît chez lui une sensibilité spéciale en face de la nature. Sa main suit avec émotion les lignes du paysage." - Copeau
"Sa palette est vivante. Elle crée. Les formes s'animent dans la lumière. L'art du dessin point servile mais évocateur, soutient l'art du coloriste qui est de la plus noble, de la plus consciencieuse sincérité." - Copeau
"Henri Lebasque est un jeune maître si justement prisé par ses toiles vibrantes et fleuries où jouent tous les prestiges de l'atmosphère et du soleil." - Albert Thomas, 1901
"La lumière du Midi délivre au paysage une certaine franchise et de ce fait, Lebasque s'essayera toujours à exprimer cette lumière par la palette." - Anonyme
"En un certain sens, sa technique est source d’intimité. L’artiste a peint d’une façon intime des scènes dans lesquelles les êtres lui sont chers." - Raymond Charmet
"L’on a souvent abusivement classé Lebasque parmi les Fauves. Son admiration et son amitié pour Matisse, Rouault, Dufy, Valtat ou Manguin, n’entamèrent en rien sa personnalité." - E. Benezit
