(frame) handsigned by the artist in pencil annoted "ea" certificate of authenticity excellent condition after buffet on arches vellum paper framed work in le domaine de la baume, bernard buffet offers far more than a simple architectural depiction: he paints the portrait of a beloved place, the refuge of his final years. This provençal residence, located in tourtour in the var region, became for the artist an inexhaustible source of inspiration, almost a familiar presence. “bernard had decided to make it into landscapes and interior views, in the manner of a detailed portrait of someone you love\.,” recalled annabel buffet. With his sharp lines and emphatic contours, buffet creates a true portrait of la baume — not a mere topographical representation, but a sensitive evocation. Each line feels like a gesture of affection, each shadow a trace of time shared. The artist captures the soul of the place with the same intensity as that of a loved face. this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
