About the Item

Blue, Mid Century Modern interior view of an artists atelier, oil on board, by Maurice Ferdinand Perrot. The painting is signed bottom right and presented in a plain white baton frame. Perrot's skill in designing theatre sets and backdrops is very evident in this composition. This evocative artwork brilliantly captures the serene ambiance of an artist's studio, bathed in soothing blue tones. The composition features a wooden easel holding an unfinished canvas, inviting viewers into the creative process. Next to it, a table displays an array of painter's tools—brushes, a palette with various hues, and a strategically placed cloth—conveying a sense of immediacy and artistic dedication. A chair draped with a cushion implies comfort and continuity in this intimate setting. The window juxtaposes the interior with an exterior view, suggesting openness and inspiration drawn from the world outside. An elegant small table with a vase and a book or sketchpad adds an intellectual touch to the scene. The painting's skilful use of monochromatic blues enhances the atmospheric depth and tranquillity, highlighting the unique interplay between space and creative intention. Maurice Ferdinand Perrot was a painter, engraver and lithographer born in 1892. Throughout his career, he also designed costumes and theatre sets. He received his artistic training at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he was taught by the painters Gabriel Ferrier and François Flameng. There he acquired a great technical mastery and a taste for classical and often virtuoso painting. He had his works accepted at the Salon des Artistes Français, of which he became a member in 1923. The portraits he exhibited at the Salon quickly ensured him an excellent clientele, but it was his nudes, often modest but always evocative, that ensured his reputation. An excellent landscape painter, he delivers Breton landscapes and Parisian views with a full, fat touch, with bright and assertive colours. During the 30s, he discovered Alsace, whose landscapes seduced him and he exhibited there regularly until the 1960s.
