Laurent de Commines - Lot 17
Laurent de Commines "Les Arts Retiennent Le Temps Watercolor on paper dated 97, view of the Château de Groussay. Sheet size: 24.5 x 24.5 cm Frame dimensions : 33 x 33 cm Born in 1960 and trained in architecture and the history of the decorative arts, Laurent de Commines soon developed a passion for the pictorial fantasies of the 18th and 19th centuries, which he revisited. Vanished interiors, improbable ornaments and cultivated whims are his tireless themes. He has also designed porcelain, furniture, fabrics and wallpapers in the same spirit, both playful and nostalgic. A memoirist as much as a storyteller, Laurent de Commines dabbles in relics and allusions. His black backgrounds dramatize his drawings, but his colors play them up. Mentally, he is close to Emilio Terry, whose monograph he illustrated.
