Title: Still Life with Lamp Cups and Flowers French Modernist Gouache Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021) Gouache on artist paper, unframed Size: 23.25 x 17.5 inches (height x width) Provenance: Artists estate, France Condition: good overall with light edge wear and minor handling marks to the paper edges, commensurate with age, there is a small tear to the bottom edge Description: A striking and complex modernist still life by French painter Guy Nicod, this richly layered gouache on paper reveals the artist’s fascination with light, reflection, and form. The composition centres on a tabletop arrangement of domestic objects—a green cup, amber jug, and round lampshade or glass dome—arranged against a deep, moody background of indigo, umber, and crimson. Beneath the main grouping, a smaller vignette of fruit, garlic bulbs, and a dish adds texture and warmth, grounding the composition in a sense of everyday intimacy. Nicod’s expressive brushwork and glowing colour palette are hallmarks of his post-war French modernist style. Vivid yellows, reds, and turquoise tones illuminate the darker backdrop, creating an almost theatrical play of light reminiscent of Georges Braque’s late still lifes and the decorative vitality of École de Paris painting...

Title: Floral Still Life With Red Amaryllis And Wine Bottles French Modernist Gouache Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021) Gouache on artist paper, unframed Size: 19.25 x 15.5 inches (height x width) Provenance: Artists estate, France Condition: good overall, with light handling marks and minor age-related wear consistent with age Description: This bold and dynamic modernist gouache by French artist Guy Nicod (1923–2021) depicts a vibrant still life of red amaryllis flowers arranged alongside a cluster of wine bottles and fruit. The tall, vivid blooms dominate the composition, their scarlet petals set against a richly painted background of cobalt blue, deep burgundy, and emerald green. At the base of the composition, the dark verticals of bottles and the rounded form of fruit anchor the scene, creating a strong sense of balance and depth. Nicod’s expressive use of gouache on paper brings an immediacy and energy to the piece. Bold brushstrokes and layered passages of colour merge figuration with abstraction, allowing the viewer to focus on the interplay of red, green, and yellow hues as much as on the floral subject itself. The painting captures not only the natural beauty of flowers, but also the celebratory atmosphere suggested by the presence of wine bottles, evoking themes of conviviality and abundance. Rooted in the traditions of post-war French modernism, Nicod’s floral still lifes combine painterly freedom with structured arrangements. Here, the oversized flowers radiate across the surface with theatrical intensity, while the bottles and fruit add depth and contrast. The work is both decorative and expressive, making it an ideal choice for collectors of French floral painting...
