About the Item

Title: Mid Century French Elegant Ink Portrait of a Soldier in Uniform Artist: Josine Vignon (French 1922-2022) Medium: Ink on paper Size: 8.75 (height) x 7.5 (width) Stamped: Verso Condition: Good Provenance: All the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artist's estate Description: This artwork by Josine Vignon is a detailed ink drawing on paper depicting a portrait of a soldier wearing glasses and a uniform. The soldier's expression is rendered with meticulous care, showcasing Vignon's ability to capture both character and emotion through her precise line work. The uniform is adorned with the number "8" on both the collar and cap, indicating a specific regiment or division, which adds a layer of historical context to the piece. Vignon's mastery of ink is evident in the cross-hatching technique used to create depth and texture, particularly in the soldier's hat and uniform. This piece is an excellent example of Vignon's portrait work, which combines her unique blend of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist influences with a keen attention to detail. This drawing is a valuable addition for collectors interested in military portraits or French art from the mid-20th century. Josine Vignon remains one of the most talented yet 'undiscovered' artists of her time, and this portrait exemplifies her skillful approach to capturing the human spirit.

Sergeant Infantry - Lithograph by A. Dunoyer de Segonzac - Early 20th Century
By André Dunoyer de Segonzac
Located in Roma, IT
Sergeant Infantry Trenches is a Vintage Offset and Lithograph print realized by Dunoyer de Segonzac. The artwork is in good condition on a yellowed paper. Stamp signed and Titled on the lower margin. André Dunoyer de Segonzac (7 July 1884 – 17 September 1974) was a French painter and graphic artist. The gossamer quality of his etchings stood in contrast to the thickly painted surfaces and generally somber color of his oil paintings, which reflected his admiration for Courbet and Cézanne. His subjects include landscapes, still lifes, and nudes. He influenced other artists like Samuel Peploe.
