Pierre catton clown artist
I have an origianl Pierre Catton painting of a clown and it is signed by the artist done on masonite. It was given to me as a present and I can't find too much on this artist. He was a French artist that painted lots of clowns as subject matter. I have no idea of it's worth, or any other information on it. I was told that this is one of a kind. That is about all I know. If anyone has information, please let me know.

I have 3 paintings by Pierre Catton. I was with my mother in the late 60's when she purchased a "clown with a parrot" and "sailboats" from a Mr Tiercet, a friend of hers who owned an art gallery in Menlo Park NJ. I had been looking for some time to purchase another and found the Oil on masonite picture of "Horses" from and art gallery in Massachusettes. They purchased it from the Harlow Powell auction (see my painting on google) I paid $550.

I have a signed Pierre Catton clown painting that was given to me in 1962. It had been purchased in Paris, France about 1959 or 1960. A letter written by Allbert Bebe came with the painting describing in great length the technique he uses. "The subjecct that he loved to paint are mainly circus folk.His faithful friends among circus artists, particularly clowns are: Pipe, Alex, Mimile, Dario etc. Each of them has his own portrait made by their friend Pierre. Pierre Catton gained notice for the first time at the Salon of Doctor Painters, where he was awarded a medal in 1959 and in 1956. He also won the silver medal at the Salondes Exchanges. His works have been exhibited in Paris and the provinces. It was the art critic, Michel George who first "discovered" him and lent his encouragement." I would love to know the value.

Vous trouverez en lien un petit tableau qu'il m'avait fait quand j'étais enfant sur une petite chûte d'isorel. Cela fait bientôt cinquante ans ans qu'il ne m'a jamais quitté et pas un jour ne se passé sans que je sonde le regard de ce clown songeur.
Ce serait trop long à expliquer ici, mais sans votre Grand-père, je n'aurais sans doute pas vu le jour. Mes parents lui doivent beaucoup, à commencer par son amitié et moi... bien davantage donc ;-)
Bien à vous.

Vous trouverez ici un petit tableau qui présente une parenté évidente avec le précédent. Ce tableau a été peint également sur un fragment d'isorel. Pierre Catton était originaire de Loupchat près de Martel (46), où il est enterré.

Bonjour,
Je m'appelle Pierre et j'étais voisin de Pierre Catton lorsqu'il venait en WE à Tilly pour peindre et se reposer dans la maison de la famille Garnier. J'étais copain avec Jean-Claude et son frère aîné nous faisait faire de belles promenades en vélo... avec son satané pistolet à plombs :-) . J'ai assisté à la création de son énorme tableau de plusieurs mètres de long pour le ministère des finances et je le vois encore dessiner avec son tube d'émail UHU-ART. J'aimerais que l'on me donne des nouvelles de sa famille et pourquoi pas de l'ancienne bande Toto/Lulu/ Christian et Pierrot. Voici mon Email : [email protected] . Je croise les doigts pour que ça marche, il a fait tant de choses pour moi que je n'oublierais jamais.

Bonjour,
Notre oncle, médecin à Martel, était un ami de Pierre Catton.
Nous aimons beaucoup ses peintures, et pas seulement ses clowns.
Nous souhaiterions beaucoup échanger avec Mlle Catton et toutes personnes l'ayant connu.

Mr. Catton,
I understand that you are Pierre Catton's Grandson.
I have an oil painting of a Husband & Wife Clown Couple that I received from my mother. She purchased it back in the early 60's and I am curious on what the painting is worth. I would be glad to send you a picture
Thank you in advance for your time.
Regards,
Terry Yochum [email protected]
