1990s Charles Dudley Mid-Century Style Drawing

Details Details Close Description One of our favorite pieces recently curated on a trip to Paris. Edouard Righetti was a Swiss born Mid-Century artist (b.1924) known primarily for his work in painting and printmaking. Though he was born Swiss, he moved away early in life and spent most of his life living and creating in France. He was known for his stylistic depictions of peasants, animals, landscapes and the sadness of suburbia. Righetti participated in numerous Salons and exhibitions internationally during his career and is widely collected. This energetic and exquisite mixed media work is a snapshot into the suburban landscape of historical France that he is widely known for. The artist has signed the bottom left of this work “E. Righetti” with a side note of “Espagne” (“Spain” in translation). The bottom right is signed, but despite research, I cannot decipher or locate any connections – I hope you can! This piece comes ready-to-frame with a custom 3″ acid-free archival mat and acid-free foamcore backing. less DIMENSIONS 18ʺW × 0.5ʺD × 23.12ʺH STYLES ExpressionismFrenchMid-Century Modern FRAME TYPE Unframed ART SUBJECTS AnimalsFigureLandscape PERIOD Mid 20th Century COUNTRY OF ORIGIN France ITEM TYPE Vintage, Antique or Pre-owned MATERIALS Mixed-MediaPaintPen and Ink CONDITION Good Condition, Original Condition Unaltered, Some Imperfections COLOR Black TEAR SHEET CONDITION NOTES Excellent shape, with some natural fading of paper — but not ink.
