Description
Georges Braque (1882-1963) - The Round Table. Offset print on wove paper, 89 x 61.5 cm. Condition A, good state of conservation. This work is a high-quality reproduction of the famous 1929 painting of the same name, one of the masterpieces of the painter's mature period, now in the Phillips Collection in Washington. The composition illustrates the quintessence of synthetic Cubism, in which Braque breaks down everyday objects - a pedestal table, sheet music, a pipe and fruit - to reorganise them in a flat space of great architectural rigour. The use of offset printing on this large-format print faithfully reproduces the interplay of materials, the faux bois and the subtle palette of browns, greys and greens characteristic of the artist. Although it is not an original lithograph, this prestige edition, often produced for museum institutions or major galleries such as Maeght, is a major decorative piece. It allows us to appreciate the spatial complexity and perfect balance between the real object and its plastic reinvention.
