AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A very beautiful and rare drawing (sketch) by the well-known French artist André Cottavoz.

*André Cottavoz was born in 1922 in Saint-Marcellin, Isère, France. After completing his studies, he participated in several exhibitions from 1945 onward. In 1953 he was awarded the Fénéon Prize. In his works on paper (drawings, etchings, etc.), the handling of light takes center stage. He often used the white surface of the paper as an active element to create the “inner brightness” that was typical for him.
His artworks, especially his large-format drawings, are often highly sought after.
From my private collection in Germany
The picture and its frame are in good condition with signs of aging.
Shipping options:

(Note: The package will be shipped only within Europe due to its large overall dimensions. Shipping costs outside Europe can be over €300 and will be charged separately. Therefore the package will not be shipped outside Europe.)
