Oil On Canvas, The Pastelliste By Edmond Tapissier

Edmond TAPISSIER 1861-1943

Tapissier is a painter, illustrator, engraver, cartoon designer for Gobelins and Aubusson.

He works in the workshop of Alexandre Cabanel and Fernand Cormon. If his studies are classic, his touch is lively and modern.

He applies the principles of photographic framing and his canvases are bathed in the light of his travels in Italy and the Middle East. Edmond Tapissier offers to our gaze, a young girl, diligent in front of his canvas.

Edmond Tapissier, favored an intimate portrait, and knew how to perfectly highlight the young artist with this framing. On the canvas, alone, the young girl, her canvas and her pastels.

We perceive the concentration of this young artist, in her eyes, in the tension of her gestures. The lighting effects accentuate his gestures and the progress of his work.
