(image) Handsigned by the artist in pencil Certificate of authenticity Buffet turns his gaze away from the glitz and glamour of Saint-Tropez to focus on the quiet life of the harbour and its fishermen. The boats, securely moored, form part of a deliberately understated composition, where every line seems to slow down the passage of time. The work exudes a restrained nostalgia, revealing the secret poetry of an everyday landscape frozen in its own permanence. LCD7829 This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
