Claudius Denis gives us a charming scene of great freshness. Three elegant women with slender silhouettes and spring outfits are deep in discussion in front of the gate of a garden. The painter demonstrates importance to the details of their clothes and their accessories; a charming little worked bag, a boa, their three hats with different designs.
\nThe detail of the outfits allows us to situate the scene between 1900 and 1914.
\nThe scene evokes the mythological representation of the \u201cthree Graces\u201d embodying respectively joy, charm and beauty; so often depicted in art.<\/p>\n

Painter and engraver from Lyon, Claudius Denis spent his childhood in the workshop of his parents, silk weavers in Lyon.
\nDeciding to devote himself to painting, he must fend for himself. He first worked for a paint dealer and then began to take drawing lessons in a studio before entering the School of Fine Arts in Lyon.
\nAfter his military service in the Alps hunters, he left Lyon for Paris where he studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and he has survival jobs.
\nThere he meets his wife Elise with whom he has a son. They lead a bohemian life.
\nMobilized and taken prisoner during the war, he drew a lot and brought back many drawings and sketches that he engraved.
\nAt the end of 1917, they moved into a workshop in the 15th arrondissementof Paris. They lived there more comfortably thanks to the sale of drawings and etchings on the war.
\nAfter 1920 and the birth of his daughter, he passed a competition to be a drawing teacher in the schools of the City of Paris. He has a job at the School of Applied Arts , to teach “the flower” which is his specialty even if he has painted many other genres.
\nHe has three afternoons of classes, which left him free time to paint. It was at this time that he began to make designs for wallpaper and dress fabrics. Around 1927, he found a dress fabric manufacturer who regularly took designs from him, ensuring him a regular monthly salary.<\/p>\n

He exhibits his paintings twice a year at the Georges Petit gallery in Paris.<\/p>\n

He loved his job and was very active, but earning money didn’t matter to him. Whenever he could, he escaped from Paris to the countryside, to his house in Hauterive, in the Yonne, where he cultivated flowers of all kinds in an artistic disorder; he spent his time there, happy.<\/p>\n
