Henri Maurice D'Anty, listed French artist, Henry d'Anty 1910-1998 Born 1910 in Belleville France. Died in December 4 1998. Educated at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière and the Académie Julian Paris. Painter of the school of Paris. ((painter of de l'Ecole de Paris et Peintre Témoin de son Temps) He participated in numerous exhibitions and was rewarded number of prizes for his work in France and abroad

D'Anty was born in Belleville, and it was here that he came to know the picturesque architectural quality of small sloping streets, sometimes broken by flights of steps, like those of Montmartre. Afterwards he moved to Saint Maurice, where he came under the spell of the banks of the Marne with its blue green reflections, the heavy river barges,

sail boats, and the lock with its large dark mass, which all made their impressions, as did a later visit in northern France, long before he thought seriously about painting. But in both eye and mind, he was already storing secret visions and emotions. During a holiday in Brittany, he discovered an entirely new awareness of colors, or rather of colors of the enchanting, subtle tones which make up the varied atmospheres of the Breton scene. He is linked to both post impressionism and expressionism. He was part of the Ecole de Paris (School of Paris) and showed with Francois Arnal, Franz Priking, Isis Kischka, Roland Dubuc, Bernard Maurice Quentin, Michel Patrix, Roger Bezombes, Lucien Joseph Fontanarosa, Bernard Buffet, Jean Marzelle, Maurice Blond, Isaac Antcher, Francis Bott, Jean Jansem, Alfred Charles Weber, Francois Louis Lanfant de Metz, Camille Bryen, Charles Eugene Cousin, Raymond Legueult, Emile Bressler. A noted Post Impressionist and prominent member of the second generation of the School of Paris, Henri d'Anty was the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards including the Prix Cezanne in 1959 and the Prix Populiste in 1973. D’Anty studied at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere and at the Academie Julian and his works can be found in the collections of the Musee D'Orsay, the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum, at the National Museum of Fine Art in Québec, the Chrysler Museum of Art, as well as in Warsaw and Barcelona. His listing in Benezit includes a signature sample.

He was also to bring to life again the early countryside impressions which were slumbering in his subconscious. And images crowded in upon him: gamins in Belleville; banks of the Marne, with the black shades of the river lock; unfriendly plains of northern France, Paris architecture, and the silken tones of Brittany. D'Anty observed intensely: he saw again his childhood, his moments of wonder, of nostalgia, and he interpreted all into blank pieces of cloth to invite us into, his ,our world.
