Item Description
This is a large rectangular oil-on-canvas painting titled L'Orchestre, signed by François Jacquemin and dated 1950. The artwork reflects the dynamic post-war artistic movement associated with La Ruche, the artist colony in Paris's 15th arrondissement where Jacquemin was a member.
The composition features an abstract depiction of an orchestra, rendered with bold geometric forms and a limited palette of black, white, grey, red, and yellow. The musicians and their instruments are stylised into angular shapes, creating a rhythm that mirrors the music they are performing. The contrast between light and dark areas and the striking use of red gives the piece energy and visual tension.
This mid-century modern work is a tribute to the vibrancy of orchestral performance and an example of the innovative styles that emerged from La Ruche during this era. Its structured abstraction and dynamic composition exemplify Jacquemin’s engagement with the avant-garde movements of his time.
