Flor David
La Reine Morte - China Ink Drawing by Flor David - 1953

1953

About the Item

La Reine Morte is a superb original pencil and ink drawing on ivory glossy paper realized by Flor David in 1953. Representing the silhouette of an elegant woman with a rapid and synthetic line and a wise touch, this original drawing seems to be the sketch for a theatrical spectacle as the hand-written pencil notes suggest: "Comédie française 2la Reine Morte" d'Henry de Montherlant, Mony Dalmès dans le rôle de Doña Inès". Hand-signed and dated on the lower right margin. The artwork is attached to the ivory cardboard. In very good conditions, except for some foxing only on the cardboard. This defect does not affect the image: the drawing has preserved its freshness. Flor David (Paris 1891-1958) pseudonym of David Florence. Pastel painter. she was a pupil of Desirè Lucas. She exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Francais since 1923 and had honorable mention at Prix Leonie Dussueil in 1934. Flor David (Paris 1891-1958) pseudonym of David Florence.
