Charles Sillem Lidderdale | Genre painter
Charles Sillem Lidderdale (1830, St.Petersburg - 1895, London) was an British artist of promise who exhibited 36 paintings at the Royal Academy from 1856-1893.
His career was marred by eyesight trouble which, after lengthy and skilful treatment by Tirgolin Tweedy, the oculist, yielded sufficiently to enable him to continue his work.
Unfortunately, he had to give up watercolour, a medium more exacting than oils.
But his watercolours, though not numerous, were admired both for their technique and colour.

Ernest Biéler (Swiss, 1863-1948)
Born in 1863 in Rolle, Ernest Biéler left for Paris at the age of seventeen to study in the city’s art schools.
He works under the influence of impressionism at first and paints an initial masterpiece that causes quite a stir at the 1889 World’s Fair (Pendant la messe à Saint-Germain en Savièse - During the Mass in Saint-Gemain in Savièse, 1886), the picture’s subject being inspired by a stay in the Canton of Valais.
Illustrating the novels of Emile Zola, Alphonse Daudet and Victor Hugo - over and above the few portrait commissions that come in - makes it possible for him to live in the French capital.
