Bolero waistcoat in suede possibly painted by René Gruau -French Circa 1940-1950
About the Item
Circa 1940/1950
France
Light blue and beige suede sleeveless waistcoat entirely hand-painted on a musical theme probably signed by René Gruau. Commissioned for a play in the late 1940s. Two brown suede pockets on the front represent the body of a violin and a drum. Non-repetitive motifs painted on the suede relate to traditional music: lyre, piano, violin, lute, trumpet, flute, etc. as well as objects relating to musical representation: books, scores, music stands, musical notes, etc. On the back of the waistcoat are two faces, one happy and one sad, reminiscent of theatre with its two symbolic masks. Excellent colour and condition.
