Charles Lapicque
Campagne Grecque (Greek Country) by Charles Lapicque - signed color lithograph

1964

About the Item

This beautiful original lithograph depicting a Greek landscape by Charles Lapicque was printed in Paris at the Atelier Mourlot in 1964. The artist produced some of his first landscape paintings in 1920, while continuing to work in a laboratory as an engineer, where he also researched color perception. He employed fragmented pictorial space, patches of color, and cursory outlines, Lapicque’s style most closely resembled that of Raoul Dufy. He finally abandoned his assistant position at the Faculté des Sciences in 1943 to devote himself entirely to his career as an artist. This print is signed in pencil on the lower right in pencil and marked "epreuve d'artiste" (artists' proof) in pencil on the bottom left - this print is on Japan paper. Ref. Balanci 208. Edition of 99 on Japan Paper. Certificate of Provenance: Each individual work of art carefully curated by Mourlot Editions comes with a Certificate of Provenance, signed, dated, stamped, and numbered by Eric Mourlot. This certificate guarantees the origin and authenticity of your personal lithograph. About the Artist: (1898-1988) French Lapicque was a French painter whose work played a significant influential role in the development of post-modern art. Lapicque trained as an engineer at L’École Centrale des Arts et Manufactures and later fully dedicated himself to art in 1943. In the following years he created many vibrant painting, prints, and sculptures. His paintings use a mix of vibrant colors and palettes as well as multiple perspectives to reflect the scenes of his travels through Europe, a prime source of influence for him. Lapicque’s style of painting, which included portraits, landscapes, still lifes, and mythological scenes, paved the way for both pop art and narrative figuration.
