About the Item

This exquisite lithograph after Jacques Villon (1875–1963), titled Hommage a Dufy (Homage to Dufy), from the folio Lettre a mon peintre Raoul Dufy (Letter to My Painter Raoul Dufy), originates from the 1965 edition published by Librairie academique Perrin et Cie, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, July 22, 1965. Hommage a Dufy reflects Villon’s distinctive synthesis of Cubist geometry and chromatic lyricism, celebrating Raoul Dufy’s vibrant spirit through an interplay of rhythmic planes and color harmonies that embody the ideals of modernism. Executed as a lithograph on velin papeteries Arjomari-Prioux paper, this work measures 11.75 x 9.375 inches. Signed in the plate and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of Mourlot Freres and the exceptional production standards of mid-century French art publishing.

About the Publication: Lettre a mon peintre Raoul Dufy (Paris: Librairie academique Perrin et Cie, 1965) is a distinguished folio honoring Raoul Dufy (1877–1953), printed on July 22, 1965, by Mourlot Freres, Paris. Conceived as a refined homage to Dufy’s lyrical modernism, the folio comprises twenty-seven lithographs on velin Arjomari paper, executed d’apres Dufy and his contemporaries—including Jacques Villon, Georges Braque, Marc Chagall, Dunoyer de Segonzac, Marcel Gromaire, Bernard Buffet, Charles Lapicque, Andre Marchand, and Jean Lurcat—thereby situating Dufy within the broader lineage of twentieth-century French art. The project reflects both the technical mastery of Mourlot’s atelier and the mid-century Parisian ideal of merging painterly tribute with fine-print craftsmanship, affirming Dufy’s enduring influence on modern visual culture. About the Artist: Jacques Villon (1875–1963) was a French painter and printmaker whose pioneering fusion of Cubism, color theory, and lyrical abstraction made him one of the key architects of modern art. Born Gaston Emile Duchamp in Damville, France, he was the eldest brother of Marcel Duchamp and Raymond Duchamp-Villon, and together they became one of the most influential artistic families of the 20th century. Adopting the pseudonym Jacques Villon, he carved out an independent identity as a visionary who bridged the analytical rigor of Cubism with the emotional freedom of abstraction. After moving to Paris in the 1890s, Villon immersed himself in the avant-garde circles of Montmartre and later the Puteaux Group—also known as the Section d’Or—alongside Fernand Leger, Francis Picabia, Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes, and his brother Marcel. Influenced by Paul Cezanne and working in creative dialogue with contemporaries such as Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, and Man Ray, Villon sought to reconcile scientific order and spiritual beauty through geometry, rhythm, and color. His early mastery of etching and aquatint earned him acclaim as a printmaker, while his paintings from the 1910s onward—such as Portrait of Marcel Duchamp (1913), The Rider (1914), and Composition Abstraite (1919)—demonstrated a unique Cubist lyricism characterized by transparent planes, interlocking forms, and a prismatic use of light. Over the following decades, he transformed Cubism’s intellectual structure into a radiant, harmonious abstraction that anticipated mid-century lyrical and color field painting. Like Kandinsky and Miro, Villon believed that art could evoke music’s spiritual depth through pure form, while his chromatic harmonies inspired later artists such as Sonia and Robert Delaunay, Nicolas de Stael, Hans Hartung, and Victor Vasarely. Recognized internationally, Villon exhibited at the Venice Biennale, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Tate in London, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and in 1956 received the Grand Prize for Painting at the Venice Biennale for his lifetime achievements. His influence extended far beyond painting—his geometric precision and luminous palette shaped later movements including lyrical abstraction, Op Art, and postwar modernism. A deeply poetic thinker, Villon merged intellect and emotion, science and beauty, transforming mathematical order into visual harmony. His art remains celebrated for its timeless grace, uniting the logic of Cubism with the lyricism of color. Standing alongside Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, Jacques Villon is remembered as a central figure in the evolution of modern art—a master whose elegant compositions continue to inspire collectors and creators worldwide. His highest auction record was achieved by Composition (Abstraction) (1919), which sold for $2.7 million at Sotheby’s, New York, on November 7, 2018, reaffirming his legacy as one of the most refined, visionary, and collectible artists of the 20th century.
