Très Parisien, 1923, No 10: 6. - MATINALE. - Voici un tailleur pratique... 1923

This fashion plate titled 'Très Parisien, 1923, No 10: 6 - MATINALE' was printed in 1923, and though the artist is anonymous, their creative vision is clearly visible. The artist's commitment to shape and colour sings out, it feels like a celebration of process. The interplay between the black geometric design of the outfit against the gentle, pale backdrop creates a striking visual contrast. Check out the brushstrokes forming the trees - see how each one is distinct, alive! The texture isn't about blending but about celebrating the act of applying pigment. It's the kind of mark-making that feels honest and raw. The grey muff and the collar soften the edginess, giving a kind of harmonic balance. This piece reminds me a little of Sonia Delaunay, a similar spirit of playfulness and freedom. Ultimately, art is about expression, and this artwork is a great example of that!
