"Spring Frolic, " Rare Drawing with Nudes by Gaston Goor, Late Art Deco
About the Item
Finely drawn and vividly hued, this drawing was executed in 1954 by Gaston Goor, who was famous for illustrating a number of books by Roger Peyrefitte and others in France. Goor was deeply influenced by the paintings he found at the Louvre in his youth, and his work often depicts male figures with an implicit, or sometimes explicit, homoerotic theme. Goor designed vases for the famous Sevres porcelain works, as well as for the Mougin pottery company in France. The drawing is crayon or pastel on paper. (The dimensions include matte and frame.)
