Description from the seller
CARLO MONTE (1930) - The Villa Terrace - Mixed media on canvas
Mixed media, acrylic paint · pigmented ink · Hand-signed · 2026
Installed in a striped canvas deck chair, an elegant woman pauses her reading and looks out to the open sea. Pale straw hat, white beach robe edged in turquoise, long geometric striped skirt: all the style of the 1930s, that of languid summers on the Riviera. An open book rests on her lap, a refreshing lemonade waits in her glass, half a lemon placed there like a still life. Behind her, parasol pines stand dark against a white villa with green shutters, arches, balustrades and a grand stone staircase bathed in Mediterranean light. In the distance, the turquoise sea peeks out beneath a deep blue sky. The fabrics fold into crystal facets, cut like shards of glass, and the Art Deco geometry structures every drape, every foliage. Everything here breathes the quiet luxury of the interwar period: paused time, resort elegance, the suspended moment of a free woman facing the wide open sea.
Mixed media: acrylic paint on pigmented ink print, matte varnish.
Varnish applied by hand, for color depth and durable protection of the work.
Support: premium canvas stretched on a wooden frame, ready to hang.
Format: 40 × 40 cm.
Signed CARLO MONTE · Galerie Labo Joconde / Atelier Joconde · certificate of authenticity provided.
CARLO MONTE is one of the creations that brings together the artists Le Yack, Neo Pablo and Popsan within Atelier Joconde, a family studio where three sensibilities live side by side: neo-realism, pop and free figuration. Under the name CARLO MONTE, the Atelier revives the golden age of Art Deco and the glamour of the 1930s: geometric figuration, crystal facets, sculptural modeling and mechanical elegance, in the lineage of the great cubist muses of the interwar period.
CARLO MONTE gathers figures captured in the sparkle of the crazy years, modern women, gleaming machines, faceted decor, where pure line and color celebrate speed and emancipation. The through line: a dialogue between Art Deco heritage and a contemporary view, where the pictorial material enhances and transfigures the printed image.
Each work is a unique piece.
