Créqule
French Cubist Oil and Acrylic on Board, Le Nez.

Late 20th Century

About the Item

Cubist acrylic and oil on board in the modern form of a stylised portrait by French artist Créqule. Signed bottom right. The painting is presented in a patinated wood frame under glass. Very modern in style with its flat planes and bold colours this piece is a refreshing take on a portrait in which the sitter remains anonymous except for the strong statement of the portrayal of the facial features. The way the colours are patchworked is reminiscent of the harlequin pattern, a theme which was made very prominent by artists such as Picasso and André l'Hôte. The distinct fields of colour also hark back to the colour field style employed by Nicolas de Staël. All these elements give us the impression of a picture painted in the 1950s ( mid-century ). Modern in style with elements of abstract geometric, this painting has it all. Créqule is a Provencal artist currently working in Saint Maxime on the Côte d'Azur just across the bay from St. Tropez.
