JACQUES VILLON Composition avec contrebasse, 1965

Lithograph from the book 'Lettre a mon Peintre' by Marcelle Oury. Printed on velin Arjomari paper. In a black wood frame with a front profile of 2.5 inches and a side profile of 0.25 inches.

The title Composition avec Contrebasse, which translates to Composition with Double Bass in English, reflects Raoul Dufy's lively exploration of music themes. Dufy created many works on musical subjects, although this specific piece's exact date might not be directly tied to a particular painting year, as it’s a lithograph reproduction from Marcelle Oury's book Lettre à mon Peintre. This lithograph captures Dufy’s characteristic vibrant and rhythmic style, printed on fine velin Arjomari paper to preserve the lively colors and textures of his original works.
