Prendergast Maurice Basile (10 October 1858 – 1 February 1924). American impressionist artist who worked in oils and watercolors. Technically, he was a member of the G8, but the delicacy of his compositions and the mosaic of his work have nothing to do with the philosophy of the group. Prendergast was born in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada on October 10, 1858. Maurice studied in Paris at the Colarossi atelier and the Académie Giuliana. In the absence of his father, an international merchant, the family moved to Boston. There, young Maurice had high commercial success as an artist, primarily due to the use of bright colors in his works, which were excellent for interiors. Maurice remained a bachelor throughout his life. He had a close relationship with his brother Charles, who was a successful framer. On one of his first trips to Paris, he met the Canadian artist James Morris, who introduced him to the English avant-garde art of Walter Sickert, Beardsley, Aubrey Vincent and James McNeil Whistler. These artists influenced Maurice's work and style. Later he met Bonnard and finally moved to the Post-Impressionist camp. He developed his own individual style - boldly contrasting colors and flat shapes, rhythmically organized into a cohesive whole. His paintings have been aptly described as tapestries, reminiscent of mosaics. A trip to Venice in 1898 after becoming acquainted with the work of Vittore Viaggio subjected his painting style to some changes; the paintings began to have an even more complex rhythmic series. Prendergast usually painted people on vacation. At the Armory Show in 1913, he exhibited seven works that defined his stylistic maturity. Although he primarily worked in watercolor, he increasingly began to use oil in his paintings. Between 1891 and 1902, Maurice created a large number of cities on his canvases.
