Female Nude Study Charcoal and Red Chalk Drawing by Georges Lucien Guyot
By Georges Lucien Guyot
Located in Atlanta, GA
French artist Georges Lucien Guyot (1885 - 1972) signed this charming woman nude study.
This painting features a lovely design of a woman getting out of the bath and wiping with a towel. Only a few lines in charcoal and red chalk or sanguine mark the silhouette and posture and capture the model's expression. The red color emphasizes the color of the skin and imbues the lascivious movement. The sketches of the bath towel are only suggested, but they give the whole thing a lot of softness and an incredible illusion of movement.
Signed on the bottom left corner: Georges Lucien Guyot.
The artist employed a method known as "sanguine" (red chalk paint) which is red crayon or chalk. The drawing has a blood-red, reddish, or flesh coloration. For centuries, painters from the 15th and 16th centuries, including famous masters like Michelangelo, Raphael, and Leonardo da Vinci, have used it for drawing.
The drawing has an elaborate off-white matte with acrylic glass protection and a modern wood frame with a deep-textured pattern in red and yellow.
Measurements:
With Frame: 20.87 in wide (53 cm) x 28.35 in high (72 cm) x 1 in deep (2.5 cm).
View alone: 11.44 in wide (29 cm) x 18.94 in high (48 cm).
Biography:
Georges Lucien Guyot (born December 10, 1885, in Paris, where he died December 31, 1972) is a French artist, sculptor, and painter.
From an early age, Georges Guyot showed artistic abilities, but the modest conditions of his parents did not allow him to study art. So he did his apprenticeship with a wood sculptor. Guyot excelled in copying works from the 15th, 16th, and 17th Centuries but rapidly showed an attraction for nature. This attraction led him to the Jardin des Plantes in Paris, where he could study wild animals and translate his observations into sculptures and paintings.
A familiar figure of Montmartre, Georges Guyot was the guest of the Bateau-Lavoir from the time of Cubism. In 1931, he joined the group of Twelve, created by François Pompon and Jane Poupelet...

Art Deco Fantasy Illustration Charcoal Drawing Lithograph by Adolf Uzarski
Located in Atlanta, GA
German Artist Adolf Uzarski (1885 - 1970) designed this stunning charcoal drawing lithograph print on paper, depicting two riders in a wild dance or fight. This drawing is part of five lithographs set to illustrate scenes from the 14th Century Tutinama, a Persian series of 52 stories, also known as "Tales of the Parrot."
Tales of adventures told by a parrot, night after night, for 52 successive nights, are moralizing tales to persuade its owner not to commit adultery misconduct with a lover in her husband's absence.
Hand-written signature on bottom right corner: "Uzarski - 19".
The lithograph is ornate with a contemporary wood frame and an acrylic glass protection.
Measurements:
With frame: 24.75 in wide (63 cm) x 29.75 in high (75.5 cm)
Opening view: 16.94 in wide (43 cm) x 22.50 in high (57 cm).
We have a set of five different pieces from the same artist.

Biography: Adolf Uzarski (1885 - 1970) was a German writer, artist, and illustrator associated with the "New Objectivity Movement."
He was born in Ruhrort bei Duisburg (1885) and studied at the Cologne School of Architecture before enrolling in 1906 at the Düsseldorf School of Arts and Crafts. Before World War I, he exhibited in Berlin and Hagen and became a successful commercial artist. While directing the advertising department of the Tietz department store in 1916–17, he produced the portfolio of lithographs, Totentanz (Danse Macabre - Dance of Death).
