About the Item

Title: French Vineyard Landscape with Blue Roofs and Bare Vines Pastel Drawing Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021) Oil pastel on artist paper Size: 23.75 x 19.75 inches (height x width) Provenance: Artists estate, France Condition: Good – strong colour and surface integrity, minor edge wear consistent with age Description: This expressive oil pastel landscape by Guy Nicod (1923–2021) captures the stark beauty of a French vineyard during the dormant season, with rows of bare vines zigzagging dramatically across the foreground. Stylised tree trunks and gnarled vine branches rise from ochre soil, their twisting forms outlined in rich reds and purples, casting long shadows that accentuate the geometry of the land. Beyond the vineyard lies a row of traditional farm buildings topped with steep, blue-tiled roofs. Their shapes are simplified into bold forms, with golden fields and green pastureland nestled behind them. The composition culminates in a textured forest edge, rendered in rich earthy tones, suggesting late autumn or winter — a time of rest and renewal in the agricultural cycle. Nicod's distinctive modernist approach is evident in the rhythmic composition and the bold, linear structure that unites natural and manmade elements. His use of colour is both expressive and grounded in place, and the image is alive with gestural energy and textural detail. The eye is drawn across the slopes of the vineyard and up into the cool blues and greens of the surrounding countryside. This piece would appeal to collectors of rural French scenes, wine-themed art, or anyone drawn to modernist landscapes that blend abstraction with natural observation. It’s a compelling work that speaks to the seasons of the land and the quiet drama of agricultural life.
