Iakovos Rizos or Iacovos Rizos (), also known as Jacques Rizo,〔Dōra Kominē-Dialetē, ''Lexiko ellēnōn kallitechnōn: zōgrafoi, gluptes, charaktes, 16os-20os aiōnas'' Volume 4 ''Pat–Ō'', Kallitechnikē bibliothēkē, Athens: Melissa, 2000, ISBN 9789602042267, (p. 99 ) .〕 (1849 – 1926) was a Greek painter who worked primarily in Paris. ==Biography== Rizos was born in Athens; he was the grandson of Iakovos Rizos Neroulos and his brother was a civil engineer.〔Clovis Lamarre and Marquis de Queux de St.-Hilaire, ''La Grèce et l'Exposition de 1878'', Pays étrangers et l'Exposition de 1878, Paris: Delagrave, 1878, , (pp. 153–54 ) .〕 He went to Paris as a young man, studied with Alexandre Cabanel at the École des Beaux Arts,〔〔 and spent his career there. He died there in 1926.〔Andreas Spyridōnos Iōannou, tr. D. Dellagrammatika, ''Greek painting, 19th century'', Athens: Melissa, 1974, , p. 238.〕 Rizos was a friend of Renoir and associated with the Impressionists, and much admired Degas' work after he first moved to Paris, but his own style was academic.〔〔(Ρίζος Ιάκωβος (1849 Αθήνα - 1926 Παρίσι) ), National Gallery of Greece .〕 Many of his paintings portray elegantly dressed women; he less often painted landscapes, in an Impressionist-influenced style.〔 He exhibited a number of times at the Paris salons, beginning with a portrait of his sister, Mrs. Paparrigopoulos, which he re-worked for the 1878 Paris exposition.〔 In 1875 his portrait of "Miss R." in a black silk dress with violet sleeves was noted by one critic as one of the finest portraits in the show.〔Anatole de Montaiglon and Louis Gonse,''Salon de 1875, Peinture et Sculpture, Aquarelles, Dessins et Gravures'', from ''Gazette des Beaux-Arts'', Paris, 1875, , (p. 9 ) .〕 in 1877 his ''Indolence'', a nude, was praised by one critic except for the execution of the head,〔''Le Courier Littéraire'', 25 May 1877, (p. 274 ) .〕 and by another praised for the colouration but faulted for the drawing, particularly of the hands and feet.〔Henry Houssaye, ''L'art français depuis dix ans'', Paris: Didier, 1882, , (p. 98 ) .〕 Rizos' ''Athenian Evening'' or ''On the Terrace'' of 1897 won a silver medal at the 1900 Paris exposition and was praised at the 1899 art exhibition in Athens.〔 It depicts an officer talking to two women on a terrace at sunset, with the Acropolis in the background, in contrast to the more common depictions of Greece in 19th-century painting that focus on rural life.〔Richard Stoneman, ''A Luminous Land: Artists Discover Greece'', Los Angeles: J. Paul Getty Museum, 1998, ISBN 978-0-89236-467-1, (p. 50 ).〕 It is a noted example of the juxtaposition of sophisticated urban life with the country's past grandeur, which was a theme of Greek artists in the late 19th and 20th centuries.〔''Four painters of 20th century Greece: Theophilos, Kontoglou, Ghika, Tsarouchis'', exhibition catalogue, London: Wildenstein, 1975, , (p. 14 ).〕〔Mary Greensted, "The Arts and Crafts Movement: exchanges between Greece and Britain (1876–1930)", MPhil thesis, University of Birmingham, n.d., p. 31 ((pdf )).〕 It and a number of his other paintings are in the Coutlides Collection at the National Gallery of Greece;〔 there are also several in private collections in both Athens and Paris.〔 At the 1897 salon, Albert-Gustave Belleroche exhibited a portrait of Rizo.〔''Explication des ouvrages de peinture, sculpture, architecture, gravure, dessins, modèles: Salon de 1897'', (p. 11 ) .〕〔''L'Illustration'' 109 (1897) (307 ) .〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Iakovos Rizos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
