Creator: William Ablett
Offered by: Nahman Gallery

Description
William Ablett was born in Paris of English parents. He was accepted at the prestigious Ecole des Beaux-Arts and began working in oils. Under the tutelage of his professors and mentors Mr. Aublet and Mr. Gerome, he quickly became very successful. In addition to many portrait commissions, he won several awards in various Salons and Exhibitions, and was made a member of the London Royal Academy and a Chevalier de Legion d'Honneur. Around 1920, Ablett's style began to change and he started working in prints. His interpretation of the modern French woman became the hallmark of the "Boudoir" style of art. His vision of the Art Deco lady combined with his technical excellence resulted in an extremely desirable and popular oeuvre. His reputation as one of the finest artists of this genre remains unchallenged to this day.
