About the Item
Title: Mid-Century French Red Pastel Drawing of Mother Reading to Child on Small Stool
by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977)
Medium: Pastel and pencil on unframed paper
Size: 19.25 inches (height) x 12.5 inches (width)
Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound.
Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France.
Description: This delicate mid-century drawing by Anne Marie Migette Perard captures an intimate domestic moment—a seated woman, likely a mother, reading to a young child perched attentively on a small wooden stool. Executed in red chalk pencil, the drawing is notable for its sensitivity and restraint. The artist focuses on gentle expression and body language, emphasizing the bond between adult and child through posture and placement.
The simplicity of line and the careful rendering of details—such as the woman’s softly curled hair, the structured chair, and the child’s cross-legged attentiveness—bring a quiet emotional depth to the piece. The open book in the woman’s lap and the child’s upright pose evoke timeless themes of storytelling, learning, and maternal care.
Ideal for collectors of figurative drawings, French family studies, or artworks that explore childhood and memory, this piece would suit both traditional interiors and modern settings where understated emotional resonance is appreciated.
