Critics

Excerpts from critics published in the press for T.W.Marshall exhibitions: * « His «''Quai de la Seine, temps gris (The Seine Banks, cloudy weather)'' » and his « ''Coin de terrasse au Luxembourg (Terrace Corner at Luxemburg Garden)'' » are almost masterpieces, for their atmosphere gently deaf but still light and fluid. Marshall is ultra-modernist in the perfect sense of the word ; he confines himself to smile at the retrograde mentality of those shocking brilliant initiatives and levelling common sense, — Narrow mindset that predominant events, misunderstood, irritates. How Marshall is right to give up to their tenderness these supporters of landscapes made in rooms and this said, easel paintings - or bedside paintings! ... » (press clippings ''Le Lynx'', 1907). * « William Marshall is also a truthful and a sad person who does not indulge himself the shortcoming of disguising anything: ''le Pont des Arts, le Pont Royal'' in winter, as we like it, appear to him clouded with smokes and mists rising from the river; the crowd with its familiar passers-by give them life from its perpetual back and forth. Marshall knows how to surprise the subtle soul of the cities and countrysides with their least favorable aspects in appearance. » (Leduc, ''Energie Française'', April 21, 1907). * « Mr. T. Marshall understands post-impressionism from the more dignified and less ''fumiste'' point of view. The severe architectural lines of his finely-harmonized "Villefranche-sur-Mer" tell well giving a sense of permanence; "The Last of the Apple Blossom, Poigny" bold to the point of extravagance, suggests an explosion of vernal beauty, of youth and vigour. » (''The Daily Telegraph'', July 10th 1911). * « The work exhibited by M. Marshall affects a very special sobriety. ''Bords du canal Saint-Vinnemer'' (The banks of Saint-Vinnemer Canal), ''Villefranche'', ''Verger'' (Orchard), are being looked at because of the simplicity in their production which do not impair in the least their effect. » (Boisard, ''Le Monde illustré'', June 12th 1907). * « TWM has a series of excellent landscapes, flawlessly elaborated, very broad, especially the seascapes, with their very synthetic production, though very expressive: in ''Bastia et le Couvent de Saint Antoine à travers les fourrés'' (Bastia and the Convent of Saint Antoine Through the Thickets), the horizon is as far as the eye can see, and a terribly hot atmosphere can be felt » (''La Vie Mondaine'', 1913). * « Elegant spirit, from which we sense the culture and the great sensitivity, T.W. Marshall transcends effortlessly, in a beautiful pictorial language, his nudes voluptuously discreet, his simple and noble figures, his interiors felted with shadows, his quivering landscapes. » (Marc Avoy, ''Salon d'automne'', 1987). * « The lesson and the contribution of Thomas William Marshall, is that Nature is beautiful as it offers opportunities to be painted, that Life is good as it is source of beauty .. that man is all greatness, freedom and hope ..because art allows him with each morning, with each new painting, with each new look, to recreate the world's magnificence ! » (Jacques Foucart, ''Musée du Louvre'' (The Louvre Museum), May 1993).
