Auguste Baillayre et ses éleves européens
Auguste Baillayre and his European students

Summary/Abstract: Known in the ambiance of the Romanian art of the interwar period as one of the most talented painters, Auguste Baillayre also asserted himself as an excellent professor. His pedagogical activity has known, from the very start, brilliant achievements. Having received European studies, those over 30 students in his studio, whom Auguste Baillayre remembers in 1961, did not return to Bessarabia. Olesi Hršanovschi-Beassley (Olga Olby), Lydia Luzanovsky, Gregoire Michonze, Antoine Irisse and Joseph Bronstein studied in Paris, Felix Roitman, Helen Barlo and Natalia Bragalia – in Brussels, Elisabeth Ivanovsky, Nina Jascinsky and Nicolae Coleadici in Amsterdam. Theodor Kiriacoff worked in Romania, in Iasi and then in Bucharest, where Helen Barlo and Natalia Bragalia returned after studying in France. Gheorghe Ceglocoff comes from Dresden and Galina Ceaşcenco creates her works in Prague. These are all remarkable plastic artists who afrmed themselves outside the Bessarabian borders. Their studies at the Fine art academies „La Grand Chaumière”, „École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs”, „Académie Julian”, „Académie Ranson” in Paris, „Académie Royale de Beaux-Arts” in Brussels, and „Académie de Beaux-Arts” in Dresden have demonstrated the professional level of Auguste Baillayre’s disciples.
