About the Item

Collectors will appreciate: A sophisticated color dialogue between fiery red and restrained neutrals Symbolic depth, inviting interpretations of desire, attachment, guardianship, and inner strength A surreal yet elegant composition that commands immediate attention in contemporary or minimal interiors A standout piece for curated collections focused on narrative abstraction, symbolism, or modern myth-making This artwork offers not just visual impact, but emotional resonance—an investment piece that engages viewers with its enigmatic presence and sculptural use of color. A mysterious ram is sat on a luscious succulent mouth, full of lust and passion. It is trying to reach a female red high-heeled shoe with a pink stick, while holding another one. The waters and the sky are silvery misty, The atmosphere is uncertain, so are its intentions, and what would happen next, once it had possessed its heart's desire. Red Horizon, Tethered Heart – A Contemporary Symbolist Masterwork A striking blend of surrealism and emotional storytelling, this painting captures a mesmerizing moment: a lone ram-like figure reclining against a radiant, sculptural form of pure red, suspended between serenity and tension. Its delicate red tether arcs downward across an expansive, silvery landscape, pulling a small, heart-shaped symbol—a gesture that reads simultaneously as longing, connection, and gentle power. Rendered in luxurious layers of cool greys and luminous vermilion, the work evokes an atmosphere that feels both mythic and modern. The bold central red form acts almost like a glowing monument, while the soft, textured background suggests an infinite horizon where reality and dream merge. This intriguing artwork features a pair of anthropomorphic figures perched atop a vivid, oversized red lip, strikingly set against a muted backdrop. The use of bold, fiery red creates a striking focal point, contrasting with the soft gray and blue hues surrounding it. One figure appears to be playfully extending a red line or beam downward, connecting with a small red object on the subtly textured surface below, evoking a sense of whimsy and curiosity. The piece's surreal elements challenge conventional perspectives, inviting viewers to interpret its symbolic connection between the figures and the lips. The minimalist background accentuates the central theme, drawing the eye to the interplay of forms and color. This work captivates with its imaginative approach and unexpected juxtapositions, showcasing artistic innovation and creativity.

Poetry of the bird, surrealist drawing, 1948
Located in PARIS, FR
Joséphine Beaudouin (1909-2005) Poetry of the Bird, surrealist painting, 1948 Oil on canvas Signed "Joséphine Beaudouin" and dated "1948" lower left 13,7 x 10,6 inch Born in Albi in 1909, Josephine Beaudouin (née Cals) showed an early interest in drawing. At the age of twelve, she moved to Paris where her mother, Jeanne Ramel-Cals, ran a literary salon that was frequented by art world figures such as Ambroise Vollard. In 1925, while her first drawings appeared in the magazine Crapouillot, the young artist entered the School of Decorative Arts where she studied fresco painting. She married the architect Eugène Beaudouin in 1928, with whom she traveled throughout Europe. Beaudouin, a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, designed a series of buildings that were precursors of modern architecture in France (Clichy, Maison du Peuple; Antony, Résidence universitaire Jean Zay). Josephine Beaudouin exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants, the Salon des Tuileries, the Salon d'Automne and the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs. The work of the one that Jean Cocteau described as "bewitching" is full of mystery. Her work bears the stamp of an extraordinary personality. Indeed, Josephine Beaudouin developed a penchant for dreams at a very early age and took refuge in the works illustrated by Gustave Doré. Her technical virtuosity and overflowing imagination were praised by the critics of her time who unanimously greeted her Marmorées (ill.1). Named by René Barotte, these are paintings made on marble slabs from 1955. The artist exploits the infinite resources of the veins of this support which inspires him poetic compositions with unusual subjects. Marked by surrealism, she returns to the fantastic by delivering a prodigious creation of the mind made of dreamed cities and trompe-l'oeil. The 1948 painting that we propose probably represents a red-billed chough. The bird is a recurring theme in the work of Josephine Beaudouin, as in her life. An avid ornithologist, she kept an aviary in her Parisian home where many island birds were kept. She also built up a collection of stuffed birds. Still on this theme, the writer Claude Aveline (1901-1992), author of the poem L'Oiseau-Qui-N'Existe-Pas, invited several visual artists to freely interpret what this bird could be. The first series of works was produced between 1956 and 1963. In 1957, Joséphine Beaudouin delivered a work with a pen of great finesse, now preserved at the Centre Pompidou (ill.2). Several renowned artists also responded to the invitation of the poet such as Jean Cocteau and Ossip Zadkine. The precision of the graphics of our painting testifies to an attentive observation of the anatomy of the birds. The artist paints with great delicacy: the technique is impeccable, the drawing is careful, the material is smooth, the details are represented with great finesse and mastery.
