Selection of Davidson Bros Pictorial Postcards series (Artist : A Ludovici)
Albert Ludovici Jnr (1852-1932) : Following the profession of his father, Albert Senior, Albert Ludovici Jr. spent his life between Paris and London painting scenes of society at leisure. His genre paintings were the most popular, particularly his studies of the interaction of couples, whether in public places or of private moments in their homes and lives - these paintings have universal appeal. But he also painted landscapes and interior scenes in both watercolour and gouache as well as in oils.
Born in Prague, the son of the painter Albert Ludovici Snr (1820-1894), Albert Jnr. had been sent to school in Geneva and subsequently entered the École des Beaux Arts in Paris. In 1875 with a wife from Normandy he set up his studio in London on Charlotte Street in what was then a French quarter of the capital, regarded as London’s Bohemia.
