École européene (XX) - Le silène

- Pastel and charcoal on paper. Stamping.

- Here is the body, not as sin, but as geography of destiny. In the drawing of this mature man, the cotton underwear is the last frontier of an empire that refuses defeat; it is the white shroud of a divinity that has decided to descend to the vulgarity of the studio. This 1930s Silenus does not dance, because his dance is interior, a tide of entrails and memory that stirs under the dome of his belly.

- Image dimensions without frame: 70 x 100 cm / 80 x 110 cm with exclusive custom frame.

At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original, and unrepeatable.

Some lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit granted by the Ministry of Culture. Although this is an administrative procedure, it is essential to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free circulation internationally.

Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering its clients original, unique, and unrepeatable works of art, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of each piece in our collection. To ensure transparency and trust in every acquisition, we offer a digital Certificate of Guarantee, signed by a certified art historian. This certificate confirms that the purchased work has been authenticated by our specialists, who verify its authorship, origin, and conservation status. The Certificate of Guarantee includes complete details about the piece, such as its author, creation date, technique used, and dimensions. The digital Certificate of Guarantee will be issued at the client’s request, providing an official reference for the acquired piece. This document will be sent in digital format and will be signed by an art historian of our gallery, ensuring its validity and support.

We are committed to our clients’ satisfaction and confidence, so any questions about the authenticity or condition of the work will be addressed professionally and diligently. To request your Certificate of Guarantee, please contact us through our usual channels.

As experts in art logistics, at Montbaron Gallery we are committed to ensuring that each piece reaches its destination safely and in the best possible condition. To this end, we work with a network of professionals specialized in art transport, who guarantee the utmost care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices indicated in the listing are indicative and subject to modification depending on various circumstances. These include variations in transport market rates, changes in delivery location, the size and weight of the work, as well as possible extraordinary circumstances, such as fluctuations in fuel costs or changes in customs and import fees. The final shipping cost will be calculated precisely based on these factors, and the client will always be informed in advance before proceeding with the shipment. Our goal is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring that the work arrives at its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises.

The frame shown in the previous images has been added to the work by a third party or by the seller, so it is not an integral part of the object. This frame is provided at no additional cost so that, when the work arrives at your home, it can be displayed immediately on your wall. Consequently, frame damage that does not affect the integrity of the work will not be considered a valid reason to file a claim or request a cancellation.
