FREE SHIPPING ANYWHERE IN THE CONTINENTAL US! This is a FABULOUS original Louis Icart etching titled "Paresse". Hand signed lower right. French. 1925 Art Deco era. Semi-nude. As with so many of Icart's works, this etching has an ethereal quality in the flowing lines of white, grey and black. A beautiful blond woman reclining on a sofa draped in fur. There is just a pop of color in the red fan, lipstick, and the heels of her shoes, so that you immediately notice the details of this amazing artwork. The etching itself measures approximately 16" x 20". It is matted and displayed in the original gilt wood frame measuring 23" x 27". Very good condition! I do have another Icart etching available for sale (please see other items in my shop), while it lasts.
I also have many other works of art, including paintings and prints.
Thanks for stopping by. If you like this item, I hope you will take a moment to browse through my shop, and check back often, for more fabulous finds!
Artnet: Louis Icart (French, 1888–1950) is considered to be a symbol of the Art Deco movement through his brilliant sketches and prints. He was born in Toulouse, France, as the first child of Jean and Elisabeth Icart. His interest in art began at an early age; he was particularly drawn to fashion sketches and designs. This was a time when the fashion industry was undergoing a revolution from the conservative 19th-century designs to the clingy simplicity of the early 20th century. Icart worked in major fashion studios where his L.I. initials on women’s clothing were highly regarded. He continued to sketch on every available surface while fighting in the First World War to ward off the anguish and agony of the war. He moved to Paris after the war to concentrate on painting and produced beautiful etchings. Icart’s prints were aquatints and drypoints elaborately done with great skill. They portrayed women in sensual, erotic poses with an implication of direct sexuality.
By the 1920s, the Art Deco movement had gained great popularity in Paris, France. Icart’s etchings and paintings, though largely influenced by Impressionists such as Claude Monet, were synonymous with the Art Deco era. His drawings also reflect the brilliance of Symbolists such as Gustave Moreau. However, Icart preferred not to be identified with artistic movements. Icart’s success financially and artistically came in the late 1920s.
His work was featured in fashion publications and design studios in Europe and the United States. His immensely popular images, which were considered phenomenal by 1925, included Laziness and Spilled Milk. His work has been exhibited in shows such as Paresse at RoGallery in Long Island, NY, and the Le Cachet in Binningen, Switzerland. His paintings are also featured at the Modern and Contemporary gallery in Fort Myers, FL. Hand-signed colored engravings by Icart can also be found at the Fine Arts Gallery Alte Kunste in Vienna, Austria, and at Zygman Voss Gallery in Chicago, IL. Icart died on December 20, 1950, at his home in Montmartre, France.
