Lagune bretonne — Fine Art

A broad band of pale blue moves across the sheet in Lagune bretonne - 1959. Smaller shifts of green and grey sit near the lower edge, leaving the rest open.

This fine art print is ready to hang on arrival. Charles Lapicque painted the water with broad washes rather than tight lines. The surface stays loose. The white frame gives the image a clean border, so the pale blue band reads as a single shape against the wall.

The wood finish on the frame edge keeps the picture from fading into the background. It fits a hallway wall with low light. From the far end of the hall the blue band holds its line, and the small grey shifts stay quiet.
