Third Bucolic: The Stakes 1955

"Third Bucolic: The Stakes" is a 1955 print by the French artist Jacques Villon (1875-1963). It features a series of fragmented images in a Cubist style. The central figure is a seated woman, likely a muse, who is surrounded by animals, figures, and objects, suggesting a mythological scene. The print's pastel colors and bold lines create a dynamic and whimsical composition, characteristic of Villon's later works, which often explored themes of nature, mythology, and the human figure.
