Dimensions of the board: 53 x 93 cm Dimensions of the frame: 61x 100 cm France, circa About artist: Jacques Cartier (1907-2001) is a French artist with a rich and varied stylistic and technical corpus, whose artistic career spanned the 20th century from the 1920s. From painting to sculpture, drawing, printmaking, medal making and illustration, this versatile and curious artist participated very early on in the most prestigious Salons of the French artistic institutional landscape (Salon des artistes français, Salon des animaliers, Salon d’Hiver, commissions for the 1937 Universal Exhibition, Salon de l’école française, etc.). An unknown artist despite his major role in the rise of animal exoticism during the Art Deco period, he exhibited during the 1940s alongside Paul Jouve, François Pompon, Jacques Nam, Roger Godchaux, Henri Valette, André Margat, Xavier de Poret, etc. His life in the studio and at the Salons was also interspersed with the completion of numerous decorative commissions for the high places of Parisian social life. Thus, for about fifteen years, he created sets (the Etoile swimming pool, the Lido, the Queen of Spades, the Cabourg casino), sculptures (the White Elephant, La Roulotte, a cornice on the dome of the Institut de France), bas-relief coats of arms for cities (Falaise, Fontainebleau), restaurant decorations (Hôtel de Londres, Filet de Sole in Fontainebleau) and always animal paintings and medals: Roquépine, Oscar RL, as well as the Napoleon for Courvoisier. From the 1960s, he drew all the animals in the Petit Larousse illustré, and in the Air de Chasse series published by François Girand. He also illustrated novels by Maurice Genevoix (La boite à pêche and L’écureuil du bois-bourru) as well as educational books for Saint-Paul editions.
