Historical Description

Maurice de Vlaminck, Bord de Rivière (Riverside); Known for his expressive brushwork and somber tones, this Maurice de Vlaminck lithograph depicts this seemingly quaint environment with character and intrigue. Peaked roof houses engross the viewer, their mystery heightened by the distance of a murky river.  Washes of cool blues and earthly browns set a muted tone to this quiet scene and render shadowy reflections in the water’s surface. A captivating example of Vlaminck’s acclaimed landscapes, we find ourselves absorbed by the setting for both the beauty of the natural surroundings and for the potential stories that the homes contain behind their walls.

Created after an original painting by Maurice de Vlaminck, this color lithograph with porchoir is hand signed in pencil by Maurice de Vlaminck (Paris, 1876- Rueil-la-Gadeliere, 1958) in the lower right margin. Published by Éditions Guy Spitzer, Paris, this work is numbered 113/300 in pencil in the lower left margin.
