About the Item
Pierre Noury (French, 1894–1981)
Les Plongeurs
Oil on board
Signed ‘NOURY’ (lower left)
21.625 x 18 in. (54.8 x 46 cm)
Les Plongeurs is a dynamic and sculptural composition by French artist Pierre Noury, capturing the poised tension and athletic grace of divers at the water’s edge. Painted with a bold, tactile surface and an earthy, sun-warmed palette, the figures are rendered in solid, rhythmic forms that echo classical relief while resonating with the muscular energy of modern life. Noury’s instinct for composition and volume imbues the scene with a quiet monumentality, elevating a fleeting gesture into timeless form.
Closely associated with the French Naturalist and post-Cubist circles, Noury was known for his deeply rooted interest in the human figure and its expressive possibilities. His work often fused traditional draftsmanship with modernist sensibilities, producing compositions that feel both grounded and elevated. Les Plongeurs is a quintessential example of his ability to balance harmony and tension, stillness and motion.
