About the Item

LE CANOTIER(Dernier beaux jours d'ete) THE BOATER(last beautiful days of summer) is an original hand drawn limited edition lithograph(not a photo reproduction or digital print) by the popular French artist Michel Delacroix, well known for his naif style paintings of a city he calls "the Paris of then." LE CANOTIER was printed using traditional hand lithography techniques on archival Arches paper, 100% acid free. LE CANOTIER is a romantic Paris river scene depicting a finely dressed couple taking a leisurely late summer afternoon rowboat ride. Soft pastel colors along with ochre, golden yellow, warm browns, hints of bright red and black create an eye-pleasing late summer afternoon scene in Paris. Print size - 25.5 x 29 inches, unframed, mint condition, pencil signed by Michel Delacroix Edition size -200 Year published - 1994 About the artist Michel Delacroix: Michel Delacroix was born in 1933 on the Left Bank, in the 14th Arrondissement of Paris. He started painting at the early age of seven just as the German Occupation of Paris began. Paris as it was during the Occupation is the Paris that appears in his paintings even today; there was a virtual absence of automobiles and streetlights, the city was quiet and isolated. His cityscapes display a simpler Paris of the past, of his boyhood rather than the urban metropolis of today. Delacroix was educated at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and spent years experimenting with several different painting styles until, at the age of 35, he began producing works in the Naïf tradition, his characteristic style. He experimented with various painting styles until he discovered his unique naif style that, with its flat, almost two-dimensional representations combined with strong colors, evokes the atmosphere of the past. Throughout the course of his career, Delacroix has been honored with numerous awards including the Grand Prix des Amateurs d’Art, Paris (1973), the Grand Prix de la Cote d’Azur, Cannes (1976) and the Premier Prix de Sept Collines, Rome (1976). His work can be found in several public and private collections including the Fonds National d’Art Contemporain in Paris and the Musée International d’Art Naïf. Delacroix’s paintings have been featured in over 300 solo exhibitions in the United States alone.
