AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Georges Delpérier — Study of a religious chair
Ink and pencil on tracing paper. France. Dating: Early 20th century. Period: circa 1900–1920.
Framing dimensions (excluding the frame): 21 cm in height × 18 cm in width.
G. Delpérier stamp on the reverse; note no. 3 at the top.
A high-backed armchair is drawn in perspective. Pinnacles, arcades and openwork ornaments compose a Neo-Gothic vocabulary adapted to religious furniture. The precision of the constructive elements gives the sheet the look of a project study or a repertoire.
Ink fixes the lines of the furniture and the pencil accompanies the construction research. The tracing paper corresponds to a practice of transfer and refinement of the drawing.
Georges Delpérier (1865–1936), French sculptor and statuary established in Tours, developed an activity ranging from monumental sculpture to decors and graphic arts. Trained at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the Arts Décoratifs, he participates in the Tours art scene. This study of religious furniture, bearing his stamp on the reverse, illustrates a Neo-Gothic vocabulary rich in arcades, pinnacles and openwork ornaments.
Condition: Old tinted tracing paper, lightly marked.
Sold without the frame.
