About the Item
LA TOUR, LA NUIT, LE JOUR is an original hand drawn limited edition lithograph by the Dutch artist known as CORNEILLE(Guillaume van Beverloo) an abstract expressionist who co-founded the 20th Century experimental art movement CoBrA recognized for their spontaneous, rebellious style of painting that was heavily inspired by the art of children and the mentally ill. Corneille devises his colorful fantastic imagery with exotic plant forms, sensuous female bodies, animals and lively pattern design. LA TOUR, LA NUIT, LE JOUR depicts an imaginary, starry sky landscape portraying two female nudes; their light gray blue bodies delineated with cobalt blue details posed beside a deep forest green tower form at the composition's center. LA TOUR, LA NUIT, LE JOUR captures the eye with its bold color combination of burgundy plum, light gray blue, yellow, greens, blues, and touches of black.

About the artist -
Guillaume Cornelis van Beverloo was better known under his pseudonym "Corneille".
Corneille - 3 July 1922 – 5 September 2010. Belgian-born Dutch master painter, printmaker, ceramicist and writer. Corneille, was born in Liege, Belgium, in 1922 of Dutch parents. He studied art at the Academy of Art in Amsterdam, in the Netherlands (1940 to 1943 ). As a co-founder of COBRA (the famed experimental artists group) in 1948, he became a leading abstract expressionist painter and printmaker along with such notables as Karel Appel, Pierre Alechinksy, Asger Jorn and Jean Dubuffet. In the mid 1950s he traveled and exhibited throughout Western Europe. He first came to the United States in 1958 having two years earlier won First Honorable Mention at the Carnegie Institute. Here he was heralded for his spirited and imaginative works. Unlike others, Corneille packed form and content in an otherwise restricted genre. Corneille was strongly influenced by Miró and Klee. In 1951 he moved to Paris and began collecting African art. These artifacts became evident in his works, which began to take on a more imaginative style, like landscapes seen from a bird's eye view, exotic birds and stylized forms. He was soon presented with many prizes and awards and his works were collected by museums in South America, Africa and Australia. Beyond the Netherlands, Corneille’s work is in the collections of several American museums, including the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. COBRA (or CoBrA) was a European avant-garde movement. The name was coined in 1948 by Christian Dotremont from the initials of the founding members' home cities: Copenhagen (Co), Brussels (Br), Amsterdam (A). The COBRA group believed in spontaneity and drew inspiration from children's or "primitive" art. “I am a painter of joy,” Corneille remarked at a 2007 exhibition of his work at the Cobra Museum, in Amstelveen, near Amsterdam.
