About the Item

Mid-century still life pastel on paper of a vase with flowers by French artist Andrée Ruy Petroff. Signed bottom right. An enchanting and energetic rendering in pastel of poppies and lilies in a glass vase. The handling of the subject is quite sculptural in nature as the many lines intersect and extend beyond the form of the subject itself as in an architect's drawing. It is this quality, alongside splashes of poppy red which impart a joyous energy to the image and give it great strength. Both beautiful and impactful. Andrée RUY PETROFF (1894-1975) was much influenced by the paintings of her father, André Petroff. She worked and lived in the South of France in Cagnes Sur Mer. She exhibited extensively on the French Riviera and in Japan in Passau. She was commissioned to decorate with paintings the Church of the Holy Family in Cagnes. Ruy Petroff also taught at the cultural center in Cagnes to share her passion for painting to the next generation as she had been inspired by her father. Ruy Petroff also edited and published books on the work of her father.
