moreThis quirky lithograph, which we believe to have been produced in the 1960s, features a dynamic horse racing scene. The marker drawing style of the print is explained by the fact that it is a maquette, or the rough draft of an unfinished poster. More than a sketch or simple outline, it specifies the specific colour shades - and their location in the design - needed for the final product. According to Wikipedia, "[Maquettes are] used to visualize and test shapes and ideas without incurring the cost and effort of producing a full-scale product. It is the analogue of the painter's cartoon, modello, oil sketch or drawn sketch." The overlapping, multicoloured words in the lower right-hand corner of the print are the different colours used throughout the image. They include rouge (red), violet, emer (short for emerald), olive, etc.
While not quite pointillism - an artistic movement which relies on the viewer's eyes and mind to blend the colour spots into a fuller range of tones - this poster applies the same technique to create a bright print by using contrasting colours. That is why pinks and violets are found amongst the greens, purples in the browns, etc. They help bring out the darker colours to paint a more vivid picture!
Linen backed and in excellent condition. Please note that all of our posters are vintage, non-reproduction works of art. less
