GEORGES BRAQUE - Lot 168
GEORGES BRAQUE Enamels from Ligugé Abbey Exhibition at the Galerie de France—Paris, 1951. Vintage poster, illustrated with a reproduction of a drawing by the Cubist painter; printed by EDIP Paris. 60.2 x 40.3 cm. Some edges show signs of wear, and there is a thumbtack hole in each corner. Note: This poster announces the exhibition dedicated to the Enamels of Ligugé Abbey, held at the Galerie de France in 1951. Illustrated based on a drawing by Georges Braque, it reflects the artist’s interest in the decorative arts and his collaborations with religious and artisanal workshops. A founding figure of Cubism alongside Pablo Picasso, Braque constantly explored new media and techniques throughout his career. The enamels created at Ligugé Abbey reflect this desire to extend his artistic language beyond easel painting. This poster offers an interesting insight into the dissemination of his work in postwar Paris’s art scene and the diversity of his creative output.
