The
studio in Prague of T. François Šimon reveals the development of
an artist of international repute from a colorist and
impressionist to a decorative painter within twenty years. One of
the best known pictures "Bruges in Snow" hangs in the
Luxembourg, in Paris. To the average man in the street who pauses to consider art, Šimon is known to him as an etcher. In the smaller circle of artists and art critics, Šimon is painter first and etcher second. And it is as painter Šimon would prefer history should record on him. He is today one of the leading Czech painters and is probably, without exaggeration, the master of the decorative school in his country. "Concarneau Fishing Boats", reproduced here, demonstrates his instinct for balance and composition, but does not do justice to his feeling for colour, a feeling manifested in all Czech and Slovak art, whether it be painting, ceramics, or even peasant embroideries. And however lovely a picture this sturdy scene of the fishing boats in Concarneau may be, it still scarcely signifies the new movement in Šimon's painting. Šimon told the writer that a painting should not make a hole in a wall-his own words- but should add to and build up the decorative effect of the room, be in harmony with the architecture of the room, with furnishings. Design, rhythm - these have now, together with a new interpretation of colour values - succeeded in absorbing his interest. His groups of figures in flowing draperies by the seashore or by trees are definitely constructed after the somewhat severe manner of murals. To the writer, the simpler charm of the "Concarneau Fishing Boats" is more convincing and would be more agreeable to have in one's room than a large canvas of rhythmically arranged and rather conventional figures, however beautiful they might be. Šimon must, however carry out of his own inspiration. He has something in his new art which is rarely found in such a finished form among artists today. ............................
