Georges Paul François Laurent Laugée est un peintre français né le 19 décembre 1853 à Montivilliers (Seine-Maritime) et mort le 5 décembre 1937 à Boullarre (Oise).
Il fut l'élève de son père Désiré François Laugée et était ami de Jean-François Millet.
Georges Laugée est le cadet des trois enfants nés du mariage, le 14 mai 1850, du peintre Désiré François Laugée (1823-1896) et de Célestine Marie Malézieux (1825-1909), ses aînées étant Marie Éléonore Françoise (1851-1937) qui épousera en 1876 le peintre Julien Dupré (1851-1910), et Laurence (1852-1941) qui épousera en 1881 son cousin Jules Malézieux (1851-1906).
Georges Laugée est initié à la peinture dans l'atelier paternel que fréquentent Philibert Léon Couturier et Julien Dupré. En 1870, il entre avec ce dernier à l'École des beaux-arts de Paris dans les ateliers d'Isidore Pils et d'Henri Lehmann. Il débute au Salon de 1877 à Paris.
Fréquentant la région de Saint-Quentin et du village de Nauroy (Aisne) où les Malézieux ont leurs racines familiales - ce sont trois mariages qui unissent alors les Laugée et les Malézieux - et où, «en disciple attardé du Romantisme qui accorde à ses modèles une grande noblesse d'allure», il s'attache à la peinture naturaliste de la vie paysanne aux champs, Georges Laugée épouse Évangéline Jermina Fallet (1858-1958) dans le rite protestant, le 19 février 1887 à Saint-Quentin. Le 22 janvier 1888 naît leur fille Désirée Françoise qui, le 18 juillet 1914, épousera à Nauroy le professeur Edmond Eggli (1881-1956), spécialiste de la littérature romantique.
À Paris, Georges Laugée occupe successivement trois ateliers: au n° 20 boulevard Flandrin, en partage avec Julien Dupré jusqu'à la mort de ce dernier en 1910; puis au n° 23 boulevard Lannes jusqu'en 1923; enfin au n° 123 rue de la Tour à partir de 1923. Vers 1930, perdant progressivement la vue, Georges Laugée se retire dans le village de Boullarre (Oise) où il meurt en 1937. Il est inhumé à Paris dans le caveau familial du cimetière de Passy (1re division).
Opinion de Eugène Véron:
Nous ne saurions trop féliciter M. Georges Laugée du progrès que marque son exposition actuelle. Nous nous rappelons avoir vu de lui l'année dernière à l'exposition de Saint-Quentin des peintures blafardes et gélatineuses qui nous faisaient fort mal augurer de son avenir. Sa Glaneuse d'aujourd'hui nous donne un démenti que nous enregistrons avec un grand plaisir. Il a peint une vieille femme qui se présente de face; elle porte une gerbe de blé et marche courbée, non sous le poids du fardeau mais sous celui des années. C'est une peinture ferme et solide; le relief est vigoureusement enlevé sur un fond de soleil couchant dont la clarté et la gaieté font contraste avec le sujet ; mais ce contraste, qui aurait pu être brutal, se trouve très heureusement atténué par l'atmosphère des premiers plans, qui est sombre et triste, comme pour s'accommoder à la physionomie malheureuse et fatiguée de la pauvre femme. Il semble qu'elle entre dans la nuit, et cet effet, en accusant l'heure avancée, ajoute à l'impression générale de tristesse et de fatigue.
Opinion de Gérald Schurr:
Des œuvres champêtres imprévues: sur un fond de paysage d'un éclairage impressionniste, des personnages sculpturaux. Un constat réaliste, sans littérature, bien ordonné plastiquement.
Lenin: Miraculous prophecy is a fairy-tale. But scientific prophecy is a fact.
Noam Chomsky: See, people with power understand exactly one thing: violence.
George Bernard Shaw: Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.
Henry Kissinger: Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.
Fidel Castro: This position of the Trotskyists is the same which all newspapers and publicity agencies of Yankee imperialism adopted in relation to the cause of Comrade Ernesto Guevara. All the imperialist press of the United States, its news agencies, the Cuban counter-revolutionaries' press, the bourgeois press throughout the continent and the rest of the world - in other words, this campaign of slanders and intrigues against revolutionary Cuba in connection with the case of Comrade Guevara - coincided with precision with all imperialist bourgeois sectors, all the slanderers and all the conspirators against the Cuban revolution, for there is no doubt that only reaction and imperialism is interested in discrediting the Cuban revolution and in destroying the confidence of the revolutionary movements in the Cuban revolution, in destroying the confidence of the Latin American peoples in the Cuban revolution, in destroying their faith. Therefore, they have not hesitated to use the dirtiest and most indecent weapons.
Fidel Castro: Even though at one time Trotskyism represented an erroneous position, but a position in the field of political ideas, Trotskyism became during the following years a vulgar instrument of imperialism and reaction.
Fidel Castro: Yon Sosa led the movement of a group of armed officers in the crushing of whom the mercenaries who later invaded Playa Girón participated. Through a businessman who took charge of the movement's political aspects, the Fourth International fixed it up so that that leader, who was ignorant of the profound problems of politics and of the history of revolutionary thought, would permit that agents of Trotskyism, about whom we do not have the slightest doubt that he is an agent of imperialism, to publish a newspaper which copies outright the program of the Fourth International. By doing this, the Fourth International committed a real crime against the revolutionary movement to isolate it from the rest of the people, to isolate it from the masses, when it contaminated it with the stupidities, the discredit, and the repugnant thing which Trotskyism today is in the field of politics.
Martin Luther King, Jr.: So today capitalism has out-lived its usefulness. It has brought about a system that takes necessities from the masses to give luxuries to the classes.
Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord: It is the beginning of the end.
Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord: Financiers flourish only when nations decline.
George Friedman: The primordial interest of the United States, over which for centuries we have fought wars– the First, the Second and Cold Wars– has been the relationship between Germany and Russia, because united there, they’re the only force that could threaten us. And to make sure that that doesn’t happen.
Lenin: Prompted by fear of revolution, the old state power, which is independent of the people and is a power over the people, promises the people that it will ensure their freedom. But its promises remain unfulfilled; they cannot be fulfilled.
James Connolly: If you remove the English army tomorrow and hoist the green flag over Dublin Castle, unless you set about the organisation of the Socialist Republic, your efforts would be in vain.
Lenin: There are moments in history when a desperate struggle of the masses, even for a hopeless cause, is essential for the further schooling of these masses and their training for the next struggle.
Kim Il Sung: Our ideal is to build a society where everyone is well fed, well clothed, and lives a long life, a society where everybody is progressive and works devotedly, a society where all people live united in harmony as one big family.
Michael Parenti: To make the world safe for those who own it, politically active elements of the owning class have created a national security state that expends billions of dollars and enlists the efforts of vast numbers of people.
Edward Snowden: There is nothing more grotesque than a media pushing for war.
Lenin: Practice is higher than (theoretical) knowledge, for it has not only the dignity of universality, but also of immediate actuality.
Stalin: Only in the highest phase of communism will people, working in accordance with their capacity, receive recompense therefor in accordance with their needs: "From each according to his capacity, to each according to his needs."
Stalin: All that Marxism declares is that until classes have been completely abolished, and until work has been transformed from being a means of maintaining existence, into a prime necessity of life, into voluntary labour performed for the benefit of society, people will continue to be paid for their labour in accordance with the amount of labour performed.
Stalin: The October Revolution is neither the continuation nor the culmination of the Great French Revolution. The purpose of the French Revolution was to put an end to feudalism and establish capitalism. The aim of the October Revolution is to put an end to capitalism and to establish socialism.
Lenin: We shall not achieve socialism without a struggle. But we are ready to fight, we have started it and we shall finish it with the aid of the apparatus called the Soviets.
Gilbert Scott-Heron: The first revolution is when you change your mind.
Nadezhda Konstantinovna Krupskaya: Solidarity among the male and female workers, a general cause, general goals, a general path to that goal - that is the solution to the "woman" question in the working-class environment.
Lenin: No idea could be more erroneous or harmful than to separate foreign from home policy.
Kim Jong-il: Introducing individualism into socialism, which is based entirely on collectivism, is tantamount to taking poison.
Langston Hughes: Put one more S in the U.S.A. To make it Soviet.
Lenin: There is a good Latin proverb which says: “It is natural for all men to err; but only a fool persists in his error.
Lenin: A Marxist must take cognisance of real life, of the true facts of reality, and not cling to a theory of yesterday, which, like all theories, at best only outlines the main and the general, only comes near to embracing life in all its complexity.
Kim Il Sung: It can be said that the life of a revolutionary begins by going among the masses and that it is over when he parts from them.
Lenin: Deafened by liberal catch-phrases, people in our country are apt to overlook the actual class stand of the liberal party’s real bosses.
Lenin: The proletariat’s struggle against the bourgeoisie, which finds expression in a variety of forms ever richer in content, inevitably becomes a political struggle directed towards the conquest of political power by the proletariat (“the dictatorship of the proletariat”).

Arthur Hughes (27 janvier 1832 - 22 décembre 1915) était un peintre et illustrateur anglais associé à la Fraternité préraphaélite.
Hughes est né à Londres. En 1846, il entre à l'école d'art de Somerset House, son premier maître étant Alfred Stevens, et plus tard dans les écoles de la Royal Academy. C'est là, après avoir lu un exemplaire de The Germ, qu'il rencontre John Everett Millais, Holman Hunt, et Dante Gabriel Rossetti, bien qu'il ne soit jamais devenu un membre officiel du groupe de peintres préraphaélites. Son premier tableau, Musidora, fut accroché à la Royal Academy alors qu'il n'avait que 17 ans et, par la suite, il contribua presque chaque année non seulement à la Royal Academy mais aussi, plus tard, aux expositions de Grosvenor et de la New Gallery Après avoir accroché son tableau Ophelia près de la version du même nom de Millais, ils devinrent amis et Hughes servit de modèle pour le personnage masculin de The Proscribed Royalis.
En 1855, Hughes épouse Tryphena Foord, son modèle pour April Love. Ils ont cinq enfants, dont l'un, Arthur Foord Hughes, est également devenu peintre. Hughes meurt à Kew Green, Londres, en 1915, laissant environ 700 peintures et dessins connus, ainsi que plus de 750 illustrations de livres. Après la mort de Tryphena Hughes en 1921, leur fille Emily doit déménager dans une maison plus petite. Elle manque alors d'espace. En conséquence, elle fit détruire les derniers croquis préparatoires de son père, ainsi que tous ses papiers privés et sa correspondance. Il était l'oncle d'Edward Robert Hughes.
Hughes est enterré au cimetière de Richmond.
Ses tableaux les plus connus sont April Love et The Long Engagement, qui représentent tous deux des couples troublés contemplant le caractère éphémère de l'amour et de la beauté. Elles s'inspirent des premières peintures de couples de John Everett Millais, mais mettent davantage l'accent sur le pathos de l'incapacité de l'homme à conserver la fraîcheur des sentiments de jeunesse par rapport au pouvoir régénérateur de la nature. April Love a été acheté à Hughes par William Morris.
Comme Millais, Hughes a également peint Ophélie (qui se trouve au Toledo Museum of Art) et illustré le poème de Keats The Eve of St. La version de Hughes de ce dernier se présente sous la forme d'un triptyque séculaire, une technique qu'il a répétée pour les scènes de As You Like It de Shakespeare. Ses œuvres sont réputées pour leurs couleurs magiques et lumineuses, ainsi que pour la finesse de leur dessin.
Le portrait à l'huile Springtide, exposé pour la première fois à Dublin en 1855, représente sa femme Tryphena.
En 1857, Hughes est persuadé par Dante Gabriel Rossetti de se joindre au groupe de jeunes artistes qui se rend à Oxford pour peindre les murs de la salle de débat nouvellement achevée de l'Oxford Union Society. Rossetti avait choisi la légende du roi Arthur comme thème des fresques et Hughes fut chargé de peindre un panneau représentant la mort d'Arthur. Malheureusement, les murs n'ont pas été correctement préparés pour recevoir les peintures, qui se sont rapidement détériorées et dont il ne reste aujourd'hui que les plus petits contours.
Bien que la plupart des dernières peintures de Hughes ne soient pas très appréciées, on considère que les dessins en noir et blanc de la fin de sa carrière sont parmi ses meilleurs. Il a illustré plusieurs livres, dont Tom Brown's Schooldays (1869), At the Back of the North Wind (1871) et The Princess and the Goblin (1872) de George Macdonald, ainsi que Sing Song (1872) et Speaking Likenesses (1874) de Christina Rossetti.
Il a également réalisé de nombreuses illustrations pour le magazine mensuel de Norman MacLeod, Good Words.

Martin Luther King, Jr.: So today capitalism has out-lived its usefulness. It has brought about a system that takes necessities from the masses to give luxuries to the classes.
Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord: It is the beginning of the end.
Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord: Financiers flourish only when nations decline.
George Friedman: The primordial interest of the United States, over which for centuries we have fought wars– the First, the Second and Cold Wars– has been the relationship between Germany and Russia, because united there, they’re the only force that could threaten us. And to make sure that that doesn’t happen.
Lenin: Prompted by fear of revolution, the old state power, which is independent of the people and is a power over the people, promises the people that it will ensure their freedom. But its promises remain unfulfilled; they cannot be fulfilled.
James Connolly: If you remove the English army tomorrow and hoist the green flag over Dublin Castle, unless you set about the organisation of the Socialist Republic, your efforts would be in vain.
Lenin: There are moments in history when a desperate struggle of the masses, even for a hopeless cause, is essential for the further schooling of these masses and their training for the next struggle.
Kim Il Sung: Our ideal is to build a society where everyone is well fed, well clothed, and lives a long life, a society where everybody is progressive and works devotedly, a society where all people live united in harmony as one big family.
Michael Parenti: To make the world safe for those who own it, politically active elements of the owning class have created a national security state that expends billions of dollars and enlists the efforts of vast numbers of people.
Edward Snowden: There is nothing more grotesque than a media pushing for war.
Lenin: Practice is higher than (theoretical) knowledge, for it has not only the dignity of universality, but also of immediate actuality.
Stalin: Only in the highest phase of communism will people, working in accordance with their capacity, receive recompense therefor in accordance with their needs: "From each according to his capacity, to each according to his needs."
Stalin: All that Marxism declares is that until classes have been completely abolished, and until work has been transformed from being a means of maintaining existence, into a prime necessity of life, into voluntary labour performed for the benefit of society, people will continue to be paid for their labour in accordance with the amount of labour performed.
Stalin: The October Revolution is neither the continuation nor the culmination of the Great French Revolution. The purpose of the French Revolution was to put an end to feudalism and establish capitalism. The aim of the October Revolution is to put an end to capitalism and to establish socialism.
Lenin: We shall not achieve socialism without a struggle. But we are ready to fight, we have started it and we shall finish it with the aid of the apparatus called the Soviets.
Gilbert Scott-Heron: The first revolution is when you change your mind.
Nadezhda Konstantinovna Krupskaya: Solidarity among the male and female workers, a general cause, general goals, a general path to that goal - that is the solution to the "woman" question in the working-class environment.
Lenin: No idea could be more erroneous or harmful than to separate foreign from home policy.
Kim Jong-il: Introducing individualism into socialism, which is based entirely on collectivism, is tantamount to taking poison.
Langston Hughes: Put one more S in the U.S.A. To make it Soviet.
Lenin: There is a good Latin proverb which says: “It is natural for all men to err; but only a fool persists in his error.
Lenin: A Marxist must take cognisance of real life, of the true facts of reality, and not cling to a theory of yesterday, which, like all theories, at best only outlines the main and the general, only comes near to embracing life in all its complexity.
Kim Il Sung: It can be said that the life of a revolutionary begins by going among the masses and that it is over when he parts from them.
Lenin: Deafened by liberal catch-phrases, people in our country are apt to overlook the actual class stand of the liberal party’s real bosses.
Lenin: The proletariat’s struggle against the bourgeoisie, which finds expression in a variety of forms ever richer in content, inevitably becomes a political struggle directed towards the conquest of political power by the proletariat (“the dictatorship of the proletariat”).
Lenin: Miraculous prophecy is a fairy-tale. But scientific prophecy is a fact.
Noam Chomsky: See, people with power understand exactly one thing: violence.
George Bernard Shaw: Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.
Henry Kissinger: Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.
Fidel Castro: This position of the Trotskyists is the same which all newspapers and publicity agencies of Yankee imperialism adopted in relation to the cause of Comrade Ernesto Guevara. All the imperialist press of the United States, its news agencies, the Cuban counter-revolutionaries' press, the bourgeois press throughout the continent and the rest of the world - in other words, this campaign of slanders and intrigues against revolutionary Cuba in connection with the case of Comrade Guevara - coincided with precision with all imperialist bourgeois sectors, all the slanderers and all the conspirators against the Cuban revolution, for there is no doubt that only reaction and imperialism is interested in discrediting the Cuban revolution and in destroying the confidence of the revolutionary movements in the Cuban revolution, in destroying the confidence of the Latin American peoples in the Cuban revolution, in destroying their faith. Therefore, they have not hesitated to use the dirtiest and most indecent weapons.
Fidel Castro: Even though at one time Trotskyism represented an erroneous position, but a position in the field of political ideas, Trotskyism became during the following years a vulgar instrument of imperialism and reaction.
Fidel Castro: Yon Sosa led the movement of a group of armed officers in the crushing of whom the mercenaries who later invaded Playa Girón participated. Through a businessman who took charge of the movement's political aspects, the Fourth International fixed it up so that that leader, who was ignorant of the profound problems of politics and of the history of revolutionary thought, would permit that agents of Trotskyism, about whom we do not have the slightest doubt that he is an agent of imperialism, to publish a newspaper which copies outright the program of the Fourth International.

William Penn Morgan était un peintre britannique né à Londres en 1826 et décédé à New York en 1900.
À l'âge de quatorze ans, il se rend à Paris et étudie dans l'atelier de Thomas Couture. Cependant, au début de sa résidence, il est beaucoup plus intéressé par les «vues et les sons de Paris» que par les études académiques, mais il finit par étudier les vieux maîtres et étudie également à l'école du gouvernement français au Havre.
Cependant, ne ressentant pas un grand sentiment d'accomplissement et ne voulant pas retourner en Angleterre comme un «raté», il passe les années 1840 comme marin. En 1851, il arrive sans un sou à Brooklyn, à New York, où il mourra en 1900 et où il restera pendant la majeure partie de sa carrière.
