About the Item
Provenance:
Atelier of the artist
Notes:
Studio stamp on the verso of this important, early work by Gromaire.
Over the years there has been an ever-widening interest in the work of Marcel Gromaire. It is evidenced by numerous exhibitions devoted to the artist since the 1950s, for example in Lille in 1956: Homages à Léger, Rouault et Gromaire, then other exhibitions in Vienna, Bruxelles, Warsaw, Belgrade, Prague, Stockholm, Tokyo, Sydney, Tel Aviv, Chicago, and elsewhere. Then there were the major pub- lications by the Musée National d’Art Moderne (Paris, 1963), Le Palais des Beaux Arts (Lille, 1966), Lefevre Gallery (London, 1966), Galerie Patrick Cramer (Geneva, 1977), Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris (Paris, 1980), Musée du Dessin et l’Estampe Originale (Gravelines, 1980-81, 1994), Galerie de la Présidence (Paris, 1984, 1989, 1993-94, 2000), and R. S Johnson Fine Art (Chicago, 1963, 1977, 1987, 2007). In addition there was the 1954 Le Point: Marcel Gromaire featuring texts by Fran- çois Mauriac, François Gromaire, and Jacques Villon. There followed François Gromaire’s monumental catalogue raisonné of Gromaire’s prints, Marcel Gromaire: L’Oeuvre Gravé (La Bibliothèque des Arts, Paris, 1976) which we have used as the basic reference for this exhibition, and finally there was François Gromaire and Françoise Chibret-Plaussu’s painting catalogue raisonné, Marcel Gromaire: La Vie et l’Oeuvre, Catalogue Raisonné des Peintures (La Bibliothèque des Arts, Paris, 1993).

Marcel Gromaire
Marcel Gromaire (1892-1971) was a prominent French painter known for his powerful and distinctive style, characterized by robust forms, bold colors, and a sense of social realism. Born in Noyelles-sur-Sambre, France, Gromaire studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. His early works were influenced by Cubism and Fauvism, but he later developed a unique approach that emphasized monumental figures and scenes depicting the struggles of everyday life, particularly of the working class. Gromaire's paintings often conveyed a sense of social commentary and empathy, portraying themes of labor, war, and human resilience. His use of strong outlines and simplified forms gave his compositions a dramatic and expressive quality. Gromaire's art gained recognition in the interwar period, and he continued to produce significant works throughout his career. His paintings are held in major museums and collections internationally, reflecting his enduring impact on the development of modern art in France. Marcel Gromaire passed away in Paris in 1971, leaving behind a legacy of powerful and socially engaged artwork.
