A striking double original color lithograph by Jean-Paul Riopelle, printed in 1974 by the legendary Atelier Mourlot Frères, Paris—one of the most important print studios of the 20th century, known for collaborating with artists such as Picasso, Miró, and Chagall.
This work presents a dynamic double composition, where Riopelle’s signature abstract language unfolds across the surface with bold color, layered texture, and expressive movement. Known for his connection to the Automatist movement and postwar abstraction, Riopelle developed a highly recognizable style characterized by gestural forms and complex color relationships.
Printed on woven paper, the lithograph reflects the exceptional craftsmanship of the Mourlot workshop, with rich tonal depth and painterly qualities that blur the line between print and painting. The larger scale (38 x 55.8 cm) enhances its visual impact, making it an ideal statement piece within both contemporary and modern interiors.
Balanced between energy and structure, this piece offers both artistic significance and strong decorative presence.
