"André Dignimont: Model In The Studio, Watercolor"
André Dignimont was a French illustrator, painter and engraver. His career spanned more than four decades, leading him both towards portraits and female nudes - watercolours, drawings and prints, Dignimont not painting on canvas - and towards book illustration and theatre sets, thereby linking himself to painters, writers (Colette, Francis Carco, Pierre Mac Orlan) and actors. In 1927, he left Montmartre to settle permanently at 1, rue Boutarel, which, passionate about flea markets, he would turn into a museum of unusual objects. Our work is signed at the bottom right, on the back an unfinished ink wash.
