Marie Laurencin (1883-1956), French painter and printmaker. She was the first woman to paint in the Cubist style. Known for her paintings of ethereal female figures, she was close to Braque, Picasso, Matisse, and Appollinaire. In the early 20th century, she occupied a prominent place during a period when art exploded with genius. She lived in the Montmartre district of Paris and became part of the circle around the Steins. Although her early portraits show the imprint of the Fauves and Cubists, her romantic and delicate temperament defied these schools.
\nShe was prim, conservative, and always wore a kitchen apron when painting. She had a famous affair with Guilliam Appollinaire, the great contemporary French critic.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
color lithography on Japanese paper A subtle, poetic composition by Marie Laurencin, one of the most distinguished artists of the \u00c9cole de Paris. A pastel palette depicts a group of stylized female figures, depicted against a softly rendered landscape or interior. The work is distinguished by Laurencin's distinctive style: delicate contours, a vibrant color palette, and a dreamlike, almost fairytale atmosphere. The composition, in the artist's signature style, combines elements of modernism with melancholic elegance.<\/p>\n The presented work is an artistic print (\u00e9preuve d’artiste<\/em>), a lithograph executed on luxurious Japanese paper, which attests to its exceptional character and editorial quality. The piece comes from the renowned Galerie Colette Weil in Paris, known for promoting the work of artists from the \u00c9cole de Paris.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":8223,"template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false},"product_cat":[41],"product_tag":[207],"class_list":["post-8174","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","product_cat-grafiki","product_tag-laurencin-marie","product_shipping_class-rodzaj-wysylki-3"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
