Very good condition

Pierre Charbonnier studied at the Beaux Arts in Lyon, before joining the Ranson Academy in Paris. From 1919, he exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants, the Tuileries and the Autumn. Production designer on the films of Robert Bresson, friend of the poets René Char, Jacques Prévert and Francis Ponge, and also a unifier of neo-romantic painters, Pierre Charbonnier is a key figure in Parisian cultural life. He also exhibited at Katia Granoff, Albert Loeb, Henriette Gomes.

The period of the 1920s marks the first stylistic attempts. The compositions and points of view are already remarkable. Strongly influenced by cinema and photography, Pierre Charbonnier composes his paintings with a certain taste for shooting. Indeed, the plans are studied and sophisticated and the effects of dynamic openings. When it comes to a composition with ceramics, the close composition is neat and the play of reflections in the mirror clever, reminiscent of some snapshots of photography of the time. Our painting is also to be compared to the Still life with jars kept in the collections of the National Museum of Modern Art - Center Pompidou.
