Description
Claude Mancini - Vases of flowers. Original lithograph on wove paper, 72.5 x 52 cm. Signed in pencil by the artist and numbered 2/175. Condition A, perfect state of conservation. This work is a dazzling demonstration of Claude Mancini's talent for reinterpreting the classic theme of still life through the prism of a colourful and dynamic modernity. In this composition, the artist transforms the bouquet of flowers into an explosion of shapes and contrasts, in which the structure of the vases serves as an anchor for a free and lively gestural style. The rich, bold colour palette reflects his research into the vibration of light and the interaction of pigments, giving the whole an almost spring-like vitality. Mancini brilliantly plays with planes and simplified perspectives, creating a pictorial space where the floral motif becomes a pretext for exploring the material and graphic rhythm. The large vertical format of 72.5 cm magnifies the elegance of the composition and allows us to appreciate the finesse of the lithographic line combined with the density of the solid colours. The hand signature and early numbering (2/175) underline the exceptional nature of this print, which comes from a high-quality limited edition. It is a collector's item that combines decorative charm with plastic rigour, perfectly illustrating the artist's ability to capture the essence of nature in a resolutely contemporary language.
