Description:
A vibrant and expressive modernist still life by Guy Nicod, this richly coloured gouache on paper depicts an inventive arrangement of lemons, peaches, and green leaves set within a series of tilted fruit boxes and cartons. The composition plays with balance and perspective, the scattered fruit and angled containers creating a rhythmic interplay of geometry and natural form. Rendered in bold tones of yellow, green, turquoise, and soft grey, the painting radiates freshness and light.
Nicod’s assured brushwork and intuitive composition reflect the hallmarks of post-war French modernism, where everyday domestic subjects were reimagined through abstraction and expressive colour. The lemons and boxes appear almost sculptural, their simplified shapes and rich hues recalling the influence of Matisse and Georges Braque, yet infused with Nicod’s own sense of spontaneity and warmth.
Collectors of French modernist still life, kitchen and market-themed artworks, or 20th-century gouache paintings will find this piece particularly compelling. Its vibrant palette and layered surfaces give it both visual depth and decorative elegance, making it an ideal centrepiece for a bright, contemporary interior.
Unframed and ready for bespoke mounting, this French gouache still life perfectly captures Nicod’s ability to turn humble, familiar objects into a dynamic and joyful study of colour, texture, and modern composition.
