Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021)

Description:
A vivid post-war French modernist still life by Guy Nicod, this expressive oil on board orchestrates a tabletop arrangement into a bold study of colour, texture, and rhythm. A tall white bottle capped with a crimson stopper anchors the composition to the right, balanced by a deep ochre vase and a scattering of fruit—bright yellow lemons, red apples, and a ridged gourd—set against sculptural cabbage-like leaves. Nicod’s dynamic brushwork animates every surface, from the velvety greens of the foliage to flashes of cobalt and teal that suggest reflections and shadows. The background dissolves into atmospheric planes of chartreuse and turquoise, lending the scene a Fauvist energy while retaining the solidity of classic still life.
Collectors of mid-century French painting will recognise Nicod’s sensitivity to structure: vertical trunks or stems climb through the centre, creating a subtle trellis that guides the eye around the bottle, vase, and clustered produce. Thick, confident strokes convey the tactility of ceramic, glass, and peel; highlights skim across the bottle’s shoulder while darker passages ground the fruit and pottery. This kitchen-table motif—lemons, apples, leafy greens, a wine or olive-oil bottle—evokes everyday Provençal life, yet the treatment is distinctly modern: saturated colour, expressive mark-making, and a sophisticated balance of warm and cool tones.
Ideal for interiors seeking a statement of colour and movement, this work sits comfortably with French modernist still lifes, post-impressionist palettes, and contemporary eclectic decor. Unframed and ready for bespoke presentation, it exemplifies Nicod’s ability to elevate humble tabletop subjects into lyrical, architectural compositions.
