"Paysage de Toscane" French Modern Tapestry

Creator: Bernard Cathelin
Offered by: Boccara Gallery

Description
"-Manufactured by Atelier 3, Paris. -Bernard Cathelin was a French painter known for his uniquely stylized abstractions of flowers, landscapes, and figures. Utilizing thick palette knife applications and rich colors, Cathelin produces a sense of light and corporeal form in his paintings, not unlike the work of Nicolas de Staël. Many of Cathelin’s landscapes depict the area surrounding Drôme in Provence, France, where the artist’s mother was from. Born on May 20, 1919 in Paris, France, he went on to study at the Ecole National Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. In 2000, Cathelin was the subject of a retrospective at the Shanghai Art Museum. His works are in the collections of the Milwaukee Art Museum and the Spencer Museum of Art, among others. He died on April 17, 2004 in Paris, France.
Made by Atelier 3, unique material. "
