Sheet size: 66 x 50,4 cm Plate size: 43,5 x 37,5 cm Literature: Vallier 105 Georges Braque (Argenteuil 1882–1963 Paris) is one of the great and important artists of the twentieth century and left behind an impressive oeuvre. In addition to his paintings, a number of outstanding prints are among the highlights of his work. From the very beginning, he devoted his attention and passion to his graphic oeuvre and explored the artistic possibilities of printmaking techniques. Flowers, Greek profiles, teapots, apples, lemons and birds are his preferred motifs, and he repeatedly illustrates important literary works. In their reduction of form and the renunciation of everything descriptive and superfluous, the works reveal a high level of poetic expressiveness. The majority of his prints was created after the Second World War. Braque’s works now revealed softer lines, the partial reintroduction of naturalistic forms, and an emphasis on the intrinsic material value of colour and surface. His still life motifs and bird pictures are dominated by forms reduced to the essential, by clarity and simplicity. In ever new variations, they illustrate the uniqueness of his pictorial language and his vocabulary of forms and are among the most important and beautiful examples of his oeuvre.
