This authentic 27” x 20” original lithograph by renowned French artist André Minaux (1923-1986) is a stunning example of post-war Modernist art. Titled "Avignonnaise" (or "Tete Brune"), this limited-edition piece (#107/150) showcases Minaux’s signature Cubist-influenced style through a beautifully abstracted portrait of a woman.
Minaux was a leading figure of the "La Jeune Peinture" movement in Paris, which sought to return to figurative art after the dominance of pure abstraction. Legend has it that Minaux was so committed to capturing the "solidity" of his subjects that he often ground his own pigments to ensure his colors had a raw, earthy permanence that would stand the test of time.
