About the Item

This unique piece depicts a young man, capturing with finesse and emotion the figure of the smiling hiker, pipe in hand, in a scene imbued with simplicity and bucolic charm. The details of the composition, the nuances of color, and the mischievous expression of the character testify to Jamar's talent for capturing the emotion and simplicity of everyday life.

Jamar" stamp on the back Condition: Good overall condition, with signs of wear About Michel Jamar: Born in Bar-le-Duc in 1911 and passed away in Nancy in 1997, Michel Jamar was a versatile artist: engraver, painter, illustrator, sculptor, and ceramist. A student of Victor Prouvé at the École des Beaux-Arts in Nancy, Jamar trained in various artistic disciplines, including painting, sculpture, ceramics, and engraving. He later specialized in wood sculpture while maintaining a pictorial style marked by sensitivity and detail. His work exemplifies both exceptional technical mastery and a deep respect for Lorraine's artistic tradition. A Tribute to French Art and Craftsmanship: This piece is a testament to Jamar's prolific period in the 1930s-1940s. The joyful and serene hiker embodies the spirit of an era when a return to nature and simple pleasures inspired artists. An ideal piece for enthusiasts of French art, discerning collectors, or anyone wishing to enrich their collection with a unique and characterful work. Perfect for enhancing an elegant interior or completing a collection focused on the art of the interwar period. Don’t miss out on this unique item! We are specializing in premium antiques.
