"Pastel Drawing Of Draft Horses By Maximilien Luce "
superb and elegant drawing by Maximilien LUCE (1858-1941) He is a French painter, engraver and poster artist. A libertarian activist, he produced many politically engaged illustrations. His first known painting dates from 1876. From 1885, and for about fifteen years, he was part of the neo-Impressionist movement: he used the technique of divisionism (or pointillism), developed by Georges Seurat. He subsequently returned to a more classical style, but which retained the harmony and luminosity of his first period. As for this watercolor drawing, the power of the horses is notably highlighted, the length format of the whole gives all its elegance. Quality work in very good condition signed lower right and presented under glass in a modern frame.
