Biography: Georges Lapchine (born Georgii Aleksandrovich Lapshin) was a gifted landscape/still life painter, who perfected the lighting and palette of the Post Impressionist-style. His street/monument scenes are as prolific as his rural landscapes and floral still-lifes; all employ his characteristic rich texture rendered through impastos of color - ochre, ivory, sienna, phthalo and ultramarine blues loosely applied with broad brushwork and palette knife. Originally from Russia, Lapchine first studied in Moscow in the Art School of Stroganov and in France in F. Kormon's studio, before permanently moving to Paris in 1924. Lapchine exhibited annually from 1925 to 1940 in the prestigious Salon des Independents, and held numerous other exhibitions and engagements, including the Societe des Artistes Francais, the Great Exhibition of Russian Art and Turgenev's artistic community. He was equally involved in the performing arts; he was a tenor and sang Russian opera, and worked in the theaters as a stage designer, creating scenes for the Paris Music Hall, the Folies Bergere and Sesame in Monte Carlo.
