by Josine Vignon (French 1922-2022) ink/watercolour/pencil drawing on thick paper, unframed paper: 8 x 6 inches signed double sided very good condition provenance: from the artists estate, France Josine Vignon (1922-2022) was a French artist living on the Rue Beautreillis in the Marais district of Paris. She painted with a beautiful style, largely influenced by the Impressionist and Post Impressionist techniques, but adding her own distinctive style and technique to each painting. Vignon’s works carry tremendous energy and enthusiasm, often painted with very thick impasto oil creating a rich and diverse texture, as well as painting with a tremendous palette range of vibrant and joyful colors. She captured her home city of Paris, as well as Provence and the beauty of the surrounding countryside. We consider her one of the most talented and significant ‘undiscovered’ artists of her time.
