Description
Madeleine de la Giraudière (1922-2018) - The bird tree. Original lithograph on wove paper, 48 x 34 cm. Signed in pencil by the artist. Condition A, perfect state of conservation. This work is an enchanting immersion in the world of Madeleine de la Giraudière, whose naïve and poetic style has seduced collectors the world over, from Europe to Japan. In this composition, entitled "L'arbre aux oiseaux", the artist deploys all the tenderness and clarity of her vision, transforming an element of nature into a painting teeming with life and mischievous detail. The deliberate precision of her brushstrokes celebrates a rediscovered harmony between the plant and animal worlds, supported by a palette of fresh, luminous colours that is characteristic of her work. The balanced layout and gentle graphics create an atmosphere of serenity and innocence, far removed from the torments of modern abstraction. The artist's mastery of lithography preserves the transparency of the tones and the delicacy of each bird nestling in the heart of the branches, making this plate a veritable ode to biodiversity and joie de vivre. The artist's hand signature attests to the authenticity of this print, which testifies to de la Giraudière's singular place in contemporary figurative art. It is a delicate collector's item that shines through with its apparent simplicity and great narrative power.
