About the Item

Title: Mid Century French Pastel Drawing of Coastal View of Cap Ferret Artist: Josine Vignon (French 1922-2022) Medium: Oil Pastel on artist paper Size: 22.5 (height) x 19.25 (width) Stamped: Verso Condition: Good Provenance: All the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artist's estate Description: This stunning piece offers a breathtaking view of a coastal peninsula surrounded by calm blue waters. The composition features a panoramic vista from a hillside, with dense greenery framing the foreground and leading the viewer’s eye toward the peninsula and the sea beyond. The intricate detailing of the town below, with its red-tiled rooftops and winding streets, creates a lively contrast to the serene, open expanse of the ocean. Vignon’s use of soft pastel colors and detailed oil pastel strokes brings out the shimmering effect of the water, while the distant hills and sky blend into a harmonious palette of blues and greens. The subtle gradation of light from the horizon down to the foreground evokes the warmth of a sunlit afternoon, making the scene feel both peaceful and expansive. Sailboats scattered across the water add a dynamic element, further enhancing the coastal charm of the composition. This piece is an excellent example of Vignon’s ability to capture both the beauty of natural landscapes and the intricate details of coastal towns.
