Love is in the Air ultramarine blue nude couple by Paula Craioveanu
By Paula Craioveanu
Located in Forest Hills, NY
“Love is in the Air”. Nude couple in embrace. Original drawing with blue ultramarine tempera on paper.
Size 27.5x19.5in / 70x50cm . Comes with a certificate of authenticity. Shipped rolled in a tube, well packed. Get free shipping with 1stdibs code FREESHIP for items over $500.
"Love is in the Air" is a deeply romantic and dynamic piece that introduces a fresh energy to the artist’s series. The depiction of a couple in an embrace, set against the context of a beach, departs from the more introspective and solitary works we’ve seen, celebrating connection, movement, and passion instead. The use of ultramarine on ochre paper enhances the emotional resonance, with the warm-toned background adding a sense of vitality and balance to the cool blue tones.
The ochre background imbues the piece with a sunlit, earthy warmth that contrasts beautifully with the intensity of ultramarine. This palette evokes the ambiance of a beach—sun, sand, and the vast blue expanse of the sky and sea—further immersing the viewer in the setting. The artist's characteristic loose, gestural brushstrokes create a sense of movement and spontaneity that perfectly captures the physical and emotional energy of the embrace. The drips and splatters add vibrancy and suggest the spray of waves or sand kicked up in the moment.
The composition is full of life and movement. The way the man holds the woman, lifting her off the ground, conveys a sense of weightlessness, joy, and passion. Her suspended position, with one leg slightly bent and her body leaning toward him, gives the piece a romantic fluidity. Their embrace and the kiss...

Pauline and Severus (Illustration for the Part II, Scene II of Polyeucte)
Located in Paris, IDF
Albert MAIGNAN
(Beaumont-sur-Sarthe, 1845 – Saint-Prix, 1908)
Pauline and Severus (Illustration for the Part II, Scene II of Polyeucte)
Ink, grey wash on paper
Signed lower left
51 x 35 cm
Exhibition: French Watercolour Society, 11th exhibition, Galerie Georges Petit, 8, rue de Sèze, Paris. Catalogue number: 125
This classic drawing but tinted with symbolism is an excellent example of the talents of illustrator of Albert Maignan, a facet of his art that he developed significantly from 1883.
It is one of five watercolours in “black ivory” created by Maignan to illustrate the Polyeucte from Cornelius, a book specially published by Mame Editions (for which Maignan worked a lot) for the Universal Exhibition of 1889. These watercolours were exhibited in 1889 at the famous Galerie Georges Petit (which hosted the 11th exhibition of the French Water Color Society) under No. 124/125/126/127/128 (Maignan exposed another illustrative drawing for “Boileau” under No. 129).
Each drawing illustrating an episode of all five acts of the tragedy.
Our work represents the moment when Pauline (daughter of Felix, Roman senator and governor of the province of Armenia) regains his former suitor Severus (a noble Roman general) and explains that she is now married to Polyeucte (a lord of Armenia) and she can see him again. The scene is set in a garden with a small temple of Vesta, where Pauline has filed an offering; the Pauline confidante named Stratonice, stands at his side, while Severus was accompanied by his servant Fabian. The drawing is captioned by Pauline words to Severus: “Yes I love Severus, and not doing as an excuse”
The book was printed in 800 copies, containing compositions from Maignan etched by Emile Boivin...

Original 1932 aquarelle titled Le Candidat et les Électeurs by F. Robbe
Located in PARIS, FR
A whimsical and pointed piece of political satire, this original 1932 aquarelle titled Le Candidat et les Électeurs ("The Candidate and the Voters") by F. Robbe transforms the political stage into a witty animal allegory.
Drawn in expressive black ink and watercolor wash, the scene depicts a parrot—perched high, wearing a top hat, and clutching a rolled-up speech—addressing an eager flock of birds below. With beaks open wide, the ‘electors’ appear to hang on every word of the charismatic, if cartoonish, orator. It's a visual metaphor brimming with irony, capturing the timeless performance of politics: showmanship, repetition, and the crowd’s fervor.
Signed “F. Robbe, 32”, this work encapsulates the interwar period’s sharp sense of humor and skepticism toward authority. Its monochrome palette only enhances the theatrical drama and expressive character design, reminiscent of 19th-century French caricature artists like Daumier or Grandville, yet rendered in a distinctly 20th-century modernist spirit.
Measuring small in size but large in statement, this is a rare surviving piece of illustrated political commentary. Whether you're drawn to its historical charm, anthropomorphic cleverness, or satirical tone, this little gem remains a delightful reflection on democratic rituals—and their absurdities.
A unique acquisition for collectors of early 20th-century illustration, political art, or vintage French ephemera...
