About the Item
This exquisite lithograph and pochoir after Albert Gleizes (1881–1953), titled Les Baigneuses (The Bathers), from the album L'Art Cubiste, Theories et Realisations, Etude Critique (Cubist Art, Theories and Achievements, Critical Study), originates from the 1929 edition published by Editions Charles Moreau, Paris, and printed by Atelier Daniel Jacomet, Paris, May 1929. Les Baigneuses (The Bathers) embodies Gleizes’s pioneering synthesis of geometry, rhythm, and form, transforming a traditional theme into a vibrant study of structure and motion. The interlocking planes and dynamic color harmonies reveal the artist’s pursuit of “plastic dynamism,” his philosophy that geometry could express the universal laws of balance and movement underlying all natural phenomena. In this work, Gleizes transcends representation to create a vision of harmony between body, space, and rhythm—an elegant manifestation of Cubism’s intellectual and spiritual evolution.
Executed as a lithograph and pochoir on velin paper, this work measures 10.83 x 8.27 inches. Unsigned and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship of Atelier Daniel Jacomet, Paris, under the direction of Editions Charles Moreau, Paris.

About the Publication:
L'Art Cubiste, Theories et Realisations, Etude Critique (Cubist Art, Theories and Achievements, Critical Study), published in 1929 by Editions Charles Moreau, stands as one of the most significant and beautifully produced homages to the Cubist movement. Combining theoretical essays and color plates by its leading practitioners—including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Juan Gris, Fernand Leger, Albert Gleizes, Andre Lhote, Louis Marcoussis, Auguste Herbin, and Georges Valmier—the album explored both the intellectual foundation and the visual power of Cubism. Each plate was printed in lithograph and finished in pochoir by Daniel Jacomet, whose technical precision preserved the movement’s chromatic subtleties and compositional integrity. The publication remains a landmark in the history of modern art printing—a collaboration between artist, publisher, and printer that captured the harmony of thought and form at the heart of early 20th-century abstraction.
About the Artist:
Albert Gleizes (1881–1953) was a groundbreaking French painter, theorist, and philosopher whose visionary ideas and innovations established him as one of the founding fathers of Cubism and a central figure in the evolution of modern art. Born in Paris and largely self-taught, Gleizes began his career painting lyrical scenes influenced by Symbolism and Neo-Impressionism before developing a bold geometric style that redefined visual perception in the early 20th century. As a co-founder of the Cubist movement alongside Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, and the co-author with Jean Metzinger of the seminal treatise Du “Cubisme” (1912), Gleizes was not only one of the movement’s leading artists but also its principal theorist. His Cubist works, exhibited at the Salon d’Automne and Salon des Independants, introduced an intellectual dimension to abstraction, focusing on rhythm, proportion, and the simultaneity of multiple viewpoints. After World War I, he evolved beyond Cubism into a highly structured and spiritual abstraction he called “plastic dynamism,” expressed through interlocking arcs, balanced color harmonies, and rhythmic geometry designed to evoke the universal laws of nature. His 1924 treatise La Peinture et ses lois (Painting and Its Laws) became one of the most influential texts in 20th-century art, laying the theoretical foundations for movements such as Constructivism, Bauhaus design, and Concrete Art. Deeply spiritual and philosophical, Gleizes sought to unite science, mathematics, and mysticism through painting, believing that geometry was the key to understanding the divine order of the cosmos. His later works, created in his studio in Saint-Remy-de-Provence, embody his quest for cosmic harmony—geometric abstractions that vibrate with musical rhythm and meditative balance. A contemporary of Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, Gleizes shared with them a desire to transcend representation and express the unseen forces shaping modern life. His influence extended to later generations of artists including Victor Vasarely, Serge Poliakoff, Ellsworth Kelly, Frank Stella, and Josef Albers, who carried forward his vision of art as a synthesis of reason, rhythm, and emotion. Today, Gleizes’s work is held in major museum collections such as the Centre Pompidou, the Musee d’Art Moderne de Paris, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The highest auction record for Albert Gleizes was achieved by Composition cubiste (Cubist Composition), which sold for $2,940,000 USD at Christie’s, New York, on May 15, 2018, reaffirming his enduring significance as one of the most intellectual and spiritually profound artists of the modern era.
