Description from the seller
J. Chaugnot — Children at the Beach
Graphite on paper. France. Dating: 2000. Period: 2000–2009.
Dimensions unframed: 30 cm in height × 24 cm in width.
Signed and dated 2000 at bottom right; red collection stamp and handwritten title at bottom left.
The sheet brings together several sketches of children: faces, standing silhouettes and figures seated on the sand. The postures are noted with economy, some barely sketched, others more fully developed. The handwritten title gives this set the character of an outdoor study.
Graphite ranges from light lines to strong accents. The absence of elaborate decor concentrates attention on posture, movement, and expression.
J. Chaugnot gathers on this sheet a sequence of sketches devoted to childhood. The faces and postures are captured with spontaneity, in a line that is sometimes light, sometimes more assertive. Entitled “Children at the Beach,” this study preserves the freshness of live observation and bears a red collection stamp at the bottom right.
Condition: Yellowed paper with small stains and foxing visible.
Sold without the frame.
