Painter, specialist in lacquer wall decorations, Maurice Alvo participated during the 1950s in several collective exhibitions notably alongside Jean Lurçat, Roger Fumeron or even Bernard Dunand. He worked for the decorator Jean Royère who notably presented his creations during an exhibition devoted to lacquer panels organized in 1956 at his gallery in the Faubourg Saint-Honoré in Paris. In 1961, Maurice Alvo produced the large decorative frescoes on the theme of navigation for the entrance hall of the Tourist class of the liner France. Our panel, by its theme, its composition and its colors is in the same stylistic vein as the monumental frescoes of the famous liner.
