Historical Description

Alexander Calder Jeune fille et sa suite, 1972 this lithograph in colors is hand-signed by Alexander Calder in pencil in the lower right. Numbered from the edition of 100 in pencil in the lower right.

Bold, lyrical, and unmistakably Calder, Jeune fille et sa suite (1972) distills the artist’s celebrated visual language into a striking graphic composition. Rendered in deep black forms against a clean white ground, the composition is animated by Calder’s signature calligraphic line—at once spontaneous and controlled—while a vivid red sun anchors the image with a powerful focal point.

The abstracted figure suggests movement and personality through simplified, sculptural shapes, echoing the artist’s renowned mobiles and stabiles. Calder’s mastery lies in his ability to evoke balance, rhythm, and vitality with minimal means—transforming line and form into a poetic visual experience.

Created late in the artist’s career, this lithograph exemplifies Calder’s mature style, where abstraction and figuration coexist seamlessly. The bold contrast and elegant composition make it both visually commanding and highly versatile within a contemporary or modern collection.

Calder’s works are highly sought after for their immediacy and connection to his larger sculptural practice. Jeune fille et sa suite offers collectors an opportunity to acquire a museum-quality example of the artist’s iconic aesthetic—timeless, expressive, and instantly recognizable.
