Muut tiedot

This impressive depiction of the celebrations on July 14th was painted in the artist's new studio on Rue Monsieur le Prince, Montparnasse in Paris. Josephson had taken lease on the new studio in 1882, upon returning from a longer stay in Spain which begun in 1881. The expert on Josephson, Erik Blomberg, writes the following about ”July 14th” in his book from 1956: ”Back in Paris, he pursues the rendering of every day genre scenes, albeit set in a new environment, still carried out in an evident continuity with his earlier Spanish subjects. In the present painting he rounded up some Italian models, dressed up as street musicians on their way to celebrate the French National Day. He has set them up in front of his studio window with the apparent intention to make the spectator believe that he painted them in the open air. The window frame has been cleverly hidden with foliage. To the left is a blue-gray sky over the Parisian rooftops, with their typical chimney silhouette. On the other side you can see the upper floors and the roof of a house, where suspended tricolors indicate the date in question. By depicting his models as if marching past, Josephson sought to give the impression that the street view is also of a somewhat temporary, passing nature. In fact, it was the view that met him every day in his studio overlooking the courtyard three flights up. It is the roof belonging to the lower house in the courtyard that can be glimpsed between the two children in the lower right corner of the composition. One of the plate pipes that rises from the chimney is still preserved in its original shape on another chimney. The house with the balcony, however, is on the other side of a street (Rue Racine), separated from the house in the courtyard. Apart from a small addition on the roof, this house with its attics, its balcony railing and its shutters remains exactly the same as in the painting. This shows the unscrupulous realism by which Josephson worked directly after nature at the time ’July 14th’ was painted”. Much to Josephson’s happiness ”July 14th” was accepted by and exhibited in the prestigious "Paris-Salon, Exposition des Beaux-Arts" at Palais des Champs-Élysées, Paris in 1883. The painting was also on display at the "Exposition universelle de 1889" in Paris. In his review of the ”Paris-Salon” of 1883 (actually published in GHT on the fourteenth of July that year!) Karl Warburg writes: "Ernst Josephson appears at this exhibition with great strength and turns out to be one of the most distinguished painters of the Parisian school, with the vivid swiftness of painterly style, which constitutes the 'force of impressionism’. This is true, in particular, concerning a larger piece by his brush; ’Italian musicians returning from the celebrations on July 14' which deservedly has gained attention for its truth, life and powerful rendering of the models”.
