Description:
A refined and architecturally balanced French modernist still life by Guy Nicod, this A luminous and expressive modernist still life by Guy Nicod, this vibrant gouache on paper captures the artist’s bold exploration of geometry, colour, and abstraction. The composition presents an arrangement of domestic objects—possibly plates, fruit, and folded fabrics—arranged across a tabletop scattered with lemons, bowls, and draped cloths. Nicod’s confident layering of opaque gouache creates a lively visual rhythm, blending soft greys and blues with vivid bursts of yellow, green, and red.
The artist’s distinctive style merges Cubist structure with Fauvist colour, transforming everyday objects into dynamic planes of movement and energy. The scattered lemons punctuate the scene with points of brightness, contrasting against the cooler tones of the background. Broad, gestural brushstrokes give the impression of spontaneity while maintaining Nicod’s characteristic sense of compositional control. His interplay of angled forms and fragmented perspectives invites the viewer to piece together the spatial puzzle, rewarding close observation with subtle shifts in depth and texture.
Ideal for collectors drawn to mid-century French abstraction, colourist painting, or contemporary interior design, this work radiates warmth and vitality. Its soft yet structured palette makes it especially suited to light-filled modern spaces or gallery-style displays. Unframed and ready for bespoke presentation, this original gouache exemplifies Nicod’s masterful command of form, harmony, and expressive colour—an outstanding example of 20th-century French modernism reimagining the still life tradition.
