This beautiful small vintage French graphite figure sketch, rendered on paper, showcases energetic and abstracted strokes and forms. This petite artwork stands as a classic example of early abstraction in Mid-Century Europe, capturing the spirit and innovation of the era. The artwork is in good condition for its age, exhibiting only the normal signs of wear/age/paper fading as is expected with vintage art of this period, making it a treasured piece for collectors and art enthusiasts alike. Notably, you can see the beginnings of a second sketch on the bottom left, indicating that this piece was cut from a notebook, adding to its historical and artistic value.
Abstract Art (1905-1950) is any form of art that does not represent reality convincingly, but instead distorts it. In this movement, artists began with a known visible object and abstracted it to produce a more simplified form. Pioneers of the Abstract Art movement include Kandinsky, Malevich and Mondrian.
This artwork comes with archival acid-free mat. less
