Anna BOCH (1848-1936). Entrance to busy farm. Oil on panel. - Lot 74
Anna BOCH (1848-1936). Entrance to busy farm. Oil on panel. Dimensions: 43 x 37 cm. Enclosed is a certificate of authenticity drawn up by Madame Thérèse Thomas, a specialist in Anna and Eugène Boch and author of the catalog raisonné relating to Anna Boch. Anna Boch was born on February 10, 1848 in Saint-Vaast, in the Centre region of France. Her name will leave an indelible mark on the history of Belgian women's art. She was a pupil of Théo Van Rysselberghe. She evolved in luminist and impressionist painting. Elder sister of painter Eugène Boch, she co-founded the Royal Boch - Keramis earthenware factory in La Louvière, and was also a member of the Villeroy & Boch company. She was a member of the Groupe des XX as early as 1886, and took part in the 1907 Ostend Salon des Beaux-Arts with Anna De Weert, Louise Danse and Marie Antoinette Marcotte. The Ostend chapter was completed 126 years later with the remarkable exhibition at the MU-ZEE in Ostend. The exhibition at the Musée de Pont-Aven was a major event that crossed the border. A great patron of the arts, she promoted young artists, including Vincent van Gogh, whom she admired for his talent and who was a friend of her brother Eugène Boch. For 400 Belgian francs, she bought him the only work Van Gogh managed to sell during his lifetime. Anna Boch died in 1936 and is buried in the Ixelles cemetery.
