About Jean-Claude Cubaynes
1944-2026, French painter
Jean-Claude Cubaynes' art is unmistakably inspired by the great works of Impressionists, especially Monet, to whom he pays personal homage with his painting "The Garden of Giverny". He shares with them the accuracy of the play of colour and light in natural scenes, an extremely precise style of painting, fuelled by a great knowledge of optical effects and - last but certainly not least - the great admiration for garden and landscape depictions.
Cubaynes, born in 1944, studied at the Ecole des Arts Appliqués de Paris at the age of 15. Since 1966, he has worked as a freelance artist. Starting in 1970, his works have been presented in countless national and international solo exhibitions.
It is not surprising that Cubaynes has fans worldwide: With the greatest subtlety and clarity, he knows how to capture the enchanted magic of a sprawling garden or the atmosphere of a meadow in bloom; indeed, he conveys in his works the paradisiacal quality inherent in these places, and that is precisely what the Impressionists were interested in. Cubayne's pictures have an immediate effect: The viewers believe they have been transported into his landscapes with all their senses.
The artist died in 2026.

Porcelain is formed by turning or pressing, and figurative objects are cast. Complex objects have to be cast in separated steps and sections, and then "assembled". After the moulding, the pieces are dried and undergo an initial firing at about 900°C. Next, the glaze will be applied and fired at temperatures between 1,240 °C and 1,445 °C. In renowned manufactories, the porcelain is painted by hand, with each colour being fired individually under strict temperature tolerances.
Porcelain was invented in China and became widespread in Europe from the 16th century onwards. The first European porcelain factory was founded in Meissen, Germany in 1710.
Other famous European porcelain factories include Fürstenberg, Höchst, Schwarzburger Werkstätten, Lladró, Nymphenburg, KPM, Augarten, Sèvres, Limoges, Royal Copenhagen, Worcester. Each factories label their products with their personal porcelain stamps to indicate their origin.
