Charles Everett Johnson Art

American, b. 1866

Charles Everett Johnson was a painter and a commercial artist born in Gilroy, California, USA, on December 7, 1866. He studied in Paris with Richard Miller (1909–13), and later on at the AIC. He remained in Chicago for several years and in 1913, while working as an art director for the Lord and Thomas Advertising Agency, he was put in charge of the Sunkist account. Within a few years, this advertising campaign was a national success. By 1925, Johnson had returned to Southern California and established a home in Altadena and a freelance studio in Los Angeles. He taught advertising art at the Chouinard Art School and was active in Los Angeles until the early 1940s. Many artists apprenticed under Charles Everett Johnson including Haddon Hubbard Sundblon. Undoubtedly, the most influential magazine advertisements were those produced or supervised by Charles Everett Johnson. From the 1920s to the 1940s, Johnson produced many paintings that first appeared as Sunkist magazine ads and then became label images. Sunny Cove is an example of the style he was known for.

"Meditation" Dutch Woman Sewing Interior Genre Home scene Fruit Flowers on Table

By Bernard De Hoog

Located in Rancho Santa Fe, CA

Bernard de Hoog was born in Amsterdam in 1866. He studied under J.F. Hulk and J.C. van Essen at the Quellinus School in Amsterdam. Mainly a genre and portrait painter, he occupies a distinguished place among the masters of Dutch modernism. He was associated with The Hague School, primarily a movement of realism, a reaction against Romanticism. He lived and worked in Laren, Haarlem, Bussum, and The Hague enjoying much commercial success. His paintings were readily exported to the United State, Canada, and England. De Hoog advocated the simple country life and produced many endearing interior scenes inspired by compassion for the impoverished existence of the Dutch peasantry. Set within a quiet domestic interior space, our painting catches a meditative moment of a woman in the midst of her sewing. A large window illuminates this intimate interior. de Hoog’s delicate brushwork captures the sunlight reflected in the woman’s red dress...

PROVENANCE Private Collector, Seville, Spain José Villegas Cordero (Seville, August 26, 1844-Madrid, November 9, 1921) was a Spanish painter. He directed the Prado Museum between 1901 and 1918. He was the brother of the painter Ricardo Villegas Cordero. He began his apprenticeship very young with José María Romero, with whom he remained for two years until entering the School of Fine Arts in Seville, where he was under the tutelage of Eduardo Cano. In 1860, when he was only 16 years old, he sold his work Little Philosophy for 2,000 reais at the Seville Exhibition. In 1867 he traveled to Madrid, where he entered Federico Madrazo's studio. There he established friendship with painters Eduardo Rosales and Fortuny. He went regularly to the Prado where he copied Velázquez, from whom he acquired spontaneity and the use of color for his technique. Finally, and out of admiration for Fortuny's orientalist painting, he returned to Seville and organized an excursion to Morocco. At the end of 1868 he decided to travel to Rome accompanied by the painters Rafael Peralta and Luis Jiménez Aranda...
