Title: Vibrant Floral and Pineapple Still Life French Modern Gouache Painting
Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021)
Gouache on artist paper, unframed
Size: 23.25 x 17.75 inches (height x width)
Provenance: Artists estate, France
Condition: good overall; slight rippling and edge toning consistent with age; surface bright and colour retention excellent
Description:
An exuberant and rhythmically composed still life by Guy Nicod, painted in gouache on paper with striking use of form and colour. The composition bursts with energy—featuring pineapples, flowers, folded papers and vivid drapery—arranged within a dynamic interior setting. This layered and vibrant piece reflects Nicod’s signature blend of structure and spontaneity, transforming a traditional still life into a bold modernist statement.
Executed in a rich palette of magenta, cobalt, lemon yellow and turquoise, the painting balances saturated tones with expressive brushwork and abstracted geometry. Nicod’s use of gouache achieves remarkable depth, building texture through opaque passages while allowing flashes of underlying colour to animate the surface. The result is a composition that feels both grounded and effervescent, alive with painterly movement.
This work exemplifies Nicod’s late modernist sensibility—rooted in observation but liberated through abstraction. His approach recalls the chromatic confidence of the Fauves and the compositional harmony of post-war French painters such as André Lanskoy and Jean Bazaine.
From the artist’s estate in France, this unframed gouache on paper captures Nicod’s mastery of visual rhythm and emotional colour. A dazzling and expressive example from his series of still lifes, it stands as a testament to his lifelong exploration of balance, texture, and the poetic potential of everyday forms.
