MARESTÉ Georges Jules known as Géo MARESTÉ (1875-1940) - Lot 61
MARESTÉ Georges Jules known as Géo MARESTÉ (1875-1940)
Pan and Syrinx
Set comprising a charcoal with white chalk highlights on paper and a print of the same model
Signed lower left and dated 32
(pinholes, stains and foxing, folds, tears on the print)
44 x 31.5 cm - 42.5 x 32.5 cm
Note: Probably a study for the text Prélude de Pan published in Jean Giono's collection Solitude de la pitié. In bibliophily, this book was illustrated by Jean Jansem. A letter dated December 5, 1934 attests to this collaboration between the author and the artist. The project between Jean Giono and Georges Maresté was therefore aborted.
We would like to thank Madame Sylvie Gest, the Centre Jean Giono and the Association des amis de Jean Giono for their invaluable assistance.
