Description
Maurice Mourlot (1906-1983) - View of a lake. Original lithograph on untrimmed wove paper, 65 x 50 cm. Artist's proof (EA), signed, bearing a handwritten dedication by Claude Jobin, a long-time collaborator at the famous Mourlot printing works: "pour mon ami Hugon en souvenir de Maurice". Condition A, perfect state of preservation. This sensitive work testifies to Maurice Mourlot's attachment to peaceful landscapes and the play of light on water. The nuanced, restrained treatment of the lake is a perfect illustration of his style, which emphasises the atmosphere and structure of the landscape. The choice of paper with untrimmed edges reinforces the precious, authentic character of this print. The dedication by Claude Jobin, a key figure in Mourlot's lithography, adds a historical and intimate dimension to this print, recalling the close ties between artists and master printers in the bustling rue Chabrol workshop.
