‘A Scotsman in Paris’

John Duncan Fergusson

1874-1961

"Everyone in Scotland should refuse to have anything to do with black or dirty and dingy colours, and insist on clean colours in everything. I remember when I was young any colour was considered a sign of vulgarity. Greys and blacks were the only colours for people of taste and refinement. Good pictures had to be black, grey, brown or drab. Well! Let’s forget it, and insist on things in Scotland being of colour that makes for and associates itself with light, hopefulness, health and happiness." J D Fergusson

J. D. Fergusson Early life

Fergusson was born in Leith, Edinburgh. He was the first of 12 children. Although he briefly trained as a Naval Surgeon, Fergusson soon realised that his vocation was painting and he enrolled at the Trustees Academy, an Edinburgh-based art school. He rapidly became disenchanted with the rigid teaching style, however, and elected to teach himself to paint. To this end, he began to travel to Morocco, Spain and France where he became acquainted with other artists of the day. Amongst them was Samuel Peploe, another of the group of artists who would later become identified as the Scottish Colourists of which Fergusson was the most experimental and versatile. Painting career Pa Paris ris In 1898, Fergusson took his first trip to Paris to study at the Louvre. He was deeply influenced by the impressionist paintings at the Salle Caillebotte and these were an important influence on his developing style. Later he would also be influenced by Fauvism* and the fauvist principles of using colour would become a strong feature of his art. In 1907, after many visits, he finally decided to settle in Paris, which before the First World War was the centre of the art world and his close and sustained contact with the avant-garde there during the following 6 years sets him apart from his British contemporaries. He enthusiastically adopted the life style of a Bohemian artist and mingled with artists like Matisse and Picasso in the café society* * for which the city was renowned. Fergusson and his wife and life-long muse, the dancer Margaret Morris (1891- 1980: photo on next page), began to spend their summers at Cap d’Antibes in the late 1920’s. With the Second World War looming in the late thirties, they left Paris and moved back to Glasgow, where Fergusson spent the last years of his life.

The painting above shows Fergusson’s wife seated on the terrace of the Hotel Beau Site at Cap D'Antibes in the south of France. Fergusson knew Picasso (1881-1973), whose influence is apparent in the sculptural forms of the head and torso. The warm Mediterranean colouring and relaxed and lyrical mood are characteristic of Fergusson’s later works, the majority of which were inspired by Margaret Morris or her dance pupils in outdoor settings either in Glasgow, or in the south of France (principally Cap d’Antibes), to which he returned each summer.

Fauves auves (French for "the wild beasts"), a loose group of early twentieth-century Modern artists whose works *F *Fauvism auvism is the style of les F

emphasized painterly qualities and strong color over the representational or realistic values retained by Impressionism. While Fauvism as a style began around 1900 and continued beyond 1910, the movement as such lasted only a few years, 1904–1908, and had three exhibitions. The leaders of the movement were Henri Matisse and André Derain. *Café society was the collective description for the so-called "Beautiful People" and "Bright Young Things" who gathered in fashionable cafes and restaurants in New York, Paris, and London beginning in the late 19th century.

Test 3  

-Exercices du livre

passé composé with être pronoms ‘y’ and ‘en’ * [See AG pp. 64 64,, 65 65] * This section of the test involves substituting pronouns ‘y’ and ‘en’ for prepositional phrases:



‘y y’ means ‘there’ and also replaces à or dans + a thing, place or verb but not a person (the indirect object or emphatic pronoun is used instead, in this case).



‘en en en’ means ‘of it’/ ‘of them’; ‘from it’/ ‘from them’/ ‘from there’; ‘some of it/ some of them’. It replaces de + a thing.

 Usage Usage: The simple future is used to refer to: 

Future events which will happen, as a result of plans and predictions e.g. Je m’assiér m’assiérai ai devant les camions, je fer ferai ai tout mon possible pour les arrêter! Ils ne passeront pas ! [I’ll I’ll si sitt down in front of the lorries, I’ll do all I can to stop them. They will not get through! through!] Also:



(often) to give instructions e.g. Voici des verbes que vous mettrez au futur. [Here are some verbs to put into the future.]



Predicted actions actions, in clauses in which the present tense would be used in English e.g. Quand vous arriver arriverez ez au bout de la rue, vous verrez le château. [When you get to the end of the street, you’ you’llll see the castle.]

After time expressions such as as: quand/ lorsque

when

 Formation: The 'simple' future (le futur) is so named because it is a one-word tense. In other words, its formation is simple because there is no auxiliary.



The future stem for -er and -ir verbs is the infinitive



The future stem for -re verbs is the infinitive minus the fi final nal ‘e e’



The endings for the simpl simple e future are are: -ai, -as, -a, -ons, -ez, -ont



In all cases, the future stem ends in ‘r’ So to form the futur simple: Take the infinitive of the verb and add the following endings (remembering that some verbs have irregular infinitive stem stemss*(See below) and that infinitives endin ending g in ‘e e’, drop the ‘e’ ‘e’):

- ai

- ons

- as

- ez

-a

- ont

 Demain, dès l’aube (Poem by Victor Hugo, featuring the ‘simple future’)

Victor Hugo 1802 - 1885

Léopoldine

Victor-Marie Hugo was a French poet, playwright, novelist, essayist, visual artist, statesman, human rights activist and exponent of the Romantic Movement in France. He wrote Demain dès l’aube in memory of his 19 year-old married daughter Léopoldine, who had died with her husband in a drowning accident the year before.

Demain, dès l'aube, à l'heure où blanchit la campagne, Je partirai. Vois-tu, je sais que tu m'attends. J'irai par la forêt, j'irai par la montagne. Je ne puis demeurer loin de toi plus longtemps. Je marcherai les yeux fixés sur mes pensées, Sans rien voir, sans entendre aucun bruit, Seul, inconnu, le dos courbé, les mains croisées, Triste, et le jour pour moi sera comme la nuit. Je ne regarderai ni l'or du soir qui tombe, Ni les voiles au loin descendant vers Harfleur, Et quand j'arriverai, je mettrai sur ta tombe Un bouquet de houx vert et de bruyère en fleur.

 GP P230 The conditional mood of verb verbss Usage : The conditional mood is used in expressions of hypothesi hypothesiss , involving words such as, ‘would would would’, ‘could’, (‘should’) and also communicates politeness e.g.

voudrais ais parler à Mme. Deneuve.’ ‘I would like to speak to Mme. Deneuve.’ ‘Je voudr Formation: Infinitive + imper imperfect fect tense endings - ais

- ions

- ais

- iez

- ait

- aien aientt

e.g.

parler parler-- to speak

je

ais parler parlerais

nous

parler parlerions ions

tu

parler parlerais ais

vous

parler parleriez iez

il/elle/on parler parlerait ait

ils/ elles parler parleraient aient

NB Pronunciation: 

The ‘ay’ sound of the -er ending changes to ‘euh’ (sound of the letter ‘e’, in the French alphabet), in the conditional.



Endings -ais, -ait and -aient are all sounded ‘eh’ (like the ‘e’ in ‘set’)

Some irregular verbs ha have ve special infinitive stems stems, when used in the conditional mood. These are the

same stems as those used to form the ‘futur simple’ e.g. avoir (to have) être (to be)

irregular infinitive stem: aur aurirregular infinitive stem: ser-

Ma maison idéale ser serait ait à la campagne. Il y aur aurait ait trois salons, dix chambres et cinq salles de bains. Dans le jardin, il y aur aurait ait une piscine, un voudrais ais avoir des chambres avec salle barbecue et un salon de jardin. Je voudr de bains attenante.



‘remote possibility’: unreal, untrue, unlikely to occur ‘si’ + imperfect tense in one clause > the conditional mood in the other(s).

Si j’av av avais ais assez d’argent, je l’achèterai achèteraiss. If I had enough money, I would buy it. *1 Strictly speaking, the subjunctive ‘were’ should be used here, in English.

Le futur simple avec ‘si si si’ et ‘quand quand quand’ (the simple future with ‘if’ and ‘when when’): (Sequence of tenses)

 si + present tense / ffuture uture tense in second clause (or remaini remaining ng clauses)  quand + futu future re tense in both clauses (or remaining clauses)
