MARESTÉ Georges Jules known as Géo MARESTÉ (1875-1940) - Lot 332
MARESTÉ Georges Jules known as Géo MARESTÉ (1875-1940)
The tavern
Set comprising an ink on paper with an annotation "Esquisse pour le Prélude de Pan de Jean Giono" (31 x 23.8 cm), a drawing on tracing paper, a reproduction on tracing paper (26.7 x 20.5 cm) and three etching prints of the same subject, one of which is entitled Solitude de la Pitié de Giono, Prélude de Pan (subject size: 13.9 x 14.3 cm - sheet size: 33 x 23.5 cm).
(folds and tears, foxing and stains)
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.
