Two Art Deco boudoir lithographs from the early 1920s; Prent 1 is signed in the plate by the French artist Frédérique Vallet-Bisson, and Prent 2 is hand-signed in pencil with an edition number, both housed in their original oval wooden frames with green-grey and black gilded detailing, the prints originating from France and the frames from Belgium, and both in very good antique condition.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Art Deco boudoir prints (2x) – ca. 1920 in a beautiful, authentic condition.
Print 1: Elegant lady with emerald green scarf (56cm x 43cm)
* Artist: Signed in the plate by the well-known French artist Frédérique Vallet-Bisson (1862–1949).
* Subject: A sensuous and refined boudoir portrait of a woman with a fashionable 1920s turban headscarf and a bright green scarf with fringes.
* Technique: High-quality antique color lithography with striking, fresh pigments.
Print 2: Pierrot and Columbine with blue fan (54cm x 44cm)
* Artist: Hand-signed in pencil by the artist and provided with a handwritten edition number bottom-left.
* Subject: A theatrical and romantic Art Deco motif of Pierrot and his beloved, with a superbly accentuated turquoise feathered fan.
* Technique: Original aquatint/etching. The black ink on the dress lies visibly thick on the paper (intaglio), evidencing pure graphic craftsmanship.
The Framing & Provenance:
Both prints are housed in their original, oval wooden Art Deco frames from the period. The frames feature a beautifully patinated green-gray and black finish with gilded details. The back of the Pierrot etching also bears the original historic sticker from the renowned Brussels framers: "Encadrements & Gravures N. Van Gasse, 310 Rue de Merode, Saint-Gilles (Bruxelles)". This confirms the 100% authentic and early Belgian origin of the ensemble.
Both objects are in very good, original antique condition.
There are light age-appropriate traces on the wooden frames that contribute to the unique vintage character. The paper has aged slightly and evenly over decades, creating a beautiful authentic patina. See the detail photos for a precise personal impression.
