About the Item

'Portrait of a Reclining Woman', pencil on sketchbook paper, by French artist, Guillaume Dulac (circa 1920s). An artist known for his exquisite drawings - many are sketches for his larger oil paintings or other works - this piece is compelling because its image emerges from just a few graceful lines, curves and shading. Its beauty lies in its simplicity and the purity of the lines. This work is in good overall condition with some evident, characterful fading. The handwriting on the drawing is extremely faint, partly overwritten by rubbing, and written in a flowing early-20th-century cursive that is notoriously hard to decipher, yet beautiful at the same time. The artwork has been newly framed and glazed. Upon request, a video will be provided. Although this particular sketch is unsigned, our gallery holds virtually the entire remaining collection of this artist's drawings and memorabilia and therefore, its provenance is unquestionable. A series of Dulac's sketches may be acquired from our gallery on this platform to create a set to enhance a corridor or stairway in your home or workplace. About the Artist: Guillaume Dulac (1883 - 1929). This is a historical piece from a French artist born in the 19th century. He was a close associate of other well known artists, Charles Camoin and Albert Marquet. He exhibited his works in Paris' Salon des Indépendents in 1905, in the Salon de l'Union Artistique of Toulouse in 1908-1910 and had an artistic presence in the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. His last exhibit was in the Salon des Tuileries in June of 1929. In December of that same year, his body was recovered having drowned in the Seine river and is now in the famous Père-Lachaise cemetery. Because of the evident quality of his art, his works have been sold at auction and collected internationally. In La Ciotat, France, near Marseille, there is a street named after the artist: l'Avenue Guillaume Dulac.
