AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Gouache on cardboard, signed lower right. Sight dimensions: 60 x 49 cm, with frame included: 74 x 63 cm.
Austrian-born Sylvain Vigny was a self-taught expressionist artist. He was born in Vienna in 1903 and died in Nice in 1970.
Sylvain Vigny arrived in France in 1929 and, after a period of adventurous life in Vienna and Paris, he discovered Nice in 1934 and settled there. He became a naturalized French citizen and remained in Nice until the end of his life. In his new hometown he regularly exhibited in the Galerie Jean Moulin before the war.
Sylvain Vigny developed an expressionist style perfectly of his own, or as it is put in the Bénézit Dictionary:
"His painting is brutal yet warm, unsettling and chaotic, the setting of the figures, the nostalgia for aristocratic or bourgeois hairstyles, evoke Spain, Venetian festivals, la Belle Epoque, etc. The world according to Vigny is a tragic and fantastical spectacle".
Delivery via UPS. Careful packaging guaranteed. Can be shipped either with or without the glass of the frame.
