  • Eustațiu Stoenescu (Craiova, 1884-New York City, 1957) was a Romanian painter principally known for his portraiture.Eustatiu Stoenescu family originated from Oltenia in Romania. His father was a senator and his mother Mathilda was born in Brittany. Stoenescu met the French painter Leopold Durangel in 1889. He moved to Paris in 1900, with his friend Nicolas Titulescu. Stoenescu was, early on, inspired by the work of Jean-Paul Laurens with whom he studied. His first exhibition took place in 1905 at the Salon officiel de Paris and the same year in Craiova. He was immediately successful and had the opportunity to meet prestigious artists such as Auguste Rodin, Antoine Bourdelle, Henri Harpignies and Charles Cottet. By 1930 he was considered in French art circles to be the greatest living Romanian painter at the time.He was great portraitist not only capable of showing physical resemblance of the model but also the psychological dimension. He went many times in Brittany where he painted landscapes especially in Loctudy. He was a friend of the sculptor Constantin Brâncuși, who made a (lost) portrait bust of Stoenescu's son Daniel Eustațiu Stoenescu (b. 1921-d.after 1970). Daniel went on to become a successful, Coty Award winning designer of inventive costume jewellery who, with Steven Brody, founded the Cadoro jewelry company in Manhattan. His rests are in the "cimetière parisien d'Ivry", near Paris, in Ivry-sur-Seine. (en)
  • Eustațiu Stoenescu, né le 14 mai 1884 à Craiova et mort le 13 septembre 1957 à New York, est un peintre roumain. Il étudie à l'Académie Julian et à l'École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris avec JP Laurens, avec qui il collabore à des cartons de tapisserie et des décorations murales. Eustațiu Stoenescu peint des scènes de genre, des paysages, des natures mortes, remarquables par la subtilité des tons gris ("Nature morte au citron"), mais il est surtout un portraitiste virtuose, exceptionnel par son don de l'expression laconique et sa vision distante, solennelle mais non dénuée d'expressivité ("Amatorul de tablouri", 1941 ). Distingué, élégant, souriant, Eustațiu Stoenescu mène une vie étrange, légèrement romantique et encore indéfinie. Constamment présent dans les cercles sociaux de l'époque, Eustațiu est toujours perçu comme un personnage cosmopolite, raffiné et quelque peu arrogant. Peintre de grand talent, considéré par les critiques comme l'un des plus grands portraitistes de son temps, Eustațiu Stoenescu moins connu après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il est presque oublié après sa mort. Il entre en contact avec la peinture à l'âge de 15 ans, lorsque le peintre français Léopold Durangel (1828-1898) vient chez ses parents faire un portrait de sa mère. Après avoir visité l'Exposition rétrospective Nicolae Grigorescu, inaugurée en 1897 à Bucarest, dans la salle de l'Athénée roumain, il décide irréversiblement de suivre le même chemin. Il part en France avec Nicolae Titulescu et étudie la peinture. Si au début de sa carrière, ses thèmes sont influencés par Grigorescu, Stoenescu il se détache progressivement de toute influence, construisant un style fortement personnel. (fr)
