Josine Vignon
Mid Century French Original Charcoal Portrait of a Seated Woman

1950's

About the Item

Title: Mid Century French Original Charcoal Portrait of a Seated Woman Artist: Josine Vignon (French 1922-2022) Medium: Charcoal on artist paper Size: 24.25 (height) x 19 (width) Stamped: Verso Condition: Good, with signs of aging. Provenance: All the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artist's estate Description: This elegant charcoal drawing presents a detailed and expressive depiction of a woman in quiet contemplation. The subject is seated, with a gentle, thoughtful expression, her gaze directed slightly to the side. Her soft curls and delicate facial features are rendered with precision, while the loose, flowing lines of her clothing and surroundings create a sense of depth and subtle movement. Vignon’s use of charcoal gives the portrait a sense of intimacy and immediacy, with a focus on capturing the subject’s essence rather than minute details. The shading is expertly done, with darker areas providing contrast against the lighter tones of the woman’s face and attire. The overall composition, with its soft lines and shadowy background, evokes a quiet, reflective mood.
