André Devambez (1867-1944) - Lot 181
André Devambez (1867-1944)
The Charge. 1902. Lithograph. [530 x 455]. Menegoz 24. Printed in blue, the remarks in sanguine. A very fine proof on japon nacré, with important marginal remarks, numbered and signed in pencil. Long trace of oblique thread-like rubbing across the subject. All margins. Edition of 50 proofs.
The subject is based on a 1902 painting, also known as La Charge sur le boulevard Montmartre, scènes d'émeutes, currently in the Musée d'Orsay. "What is surprising in this work is the particular point of vision from which the whole composition is articulated. This vision, through which he contemplates humanity from above, will long be one of the characteristics of his art." (Michel Menegoz, André Devambez (1867-1944); presentation of a donation, exhibition catalog, Beauvais, Musée départemental de l'Oise, 1988, p. 33).
