Roger MASSON
Doulaincourt (Haute-Marne), 1890 – Soncourt (Vosges), 1950
Bouquet of Lilacs near a Book
Oil on canvas

Signed and dated upper right "R. Masson / 1927"

Roger MASSON was born on October 16, 1890, in Doulaincourt, Haute-Marne. He attended the École des Beaux-Arts in Dijon and exhibited at the salons in Paris, Reims, and Nancy. Roger Masson painted landscapes, often featuring water (banks of the Marne, Arcachon Bay, and the Italian coast) between the 1920s and 1940s. But as a journalist wrote in the newspaper La Croix de la Haute-Marne, Roger Masson "specializes in still lifes, fruits and flowers, and copper as well. He has a very pronounced sense of color for copper household utensils. All of his works reflect an undeniable talent recognized by various awards presented at fairs and exhibitions."
Our painting is dated 1927. It demonstrates the qualities of a colorist painter who knows how to play with materials to create a very harmonious composition where flowers respond to familiar objects: in this painting, the transparent vase and the book are as beautiful as the flowers!
Several of his paintings are in the Saint-Dizier museum (Doulaincourt under the snow, Zinnias, autumn flowers, Lilacs from my garden, and The Kidney at Donjeux, autumn landscape).
