Variations plate 11 BEN11 $195

The sumptuous colors and exotic images of “Variations” are a dramatic addition to Panteek’s offerings.  These beautiful and rare French Art Deco pochoirs showcase designs intended for fabrics or wall treatments of the period.

Variations was part of a larger work, Floréal Dessins & Coloris Nouveaux, which included work by the other great masters of the art of pochoir, Jean Saudé and Eugene Séguy.

Edouard Benedictus was a noted painter, writer, designer, composer, and chemist who was a member of the Apaches, the French artistic rebels whose number included Ravel.

The dramatically vivid colors were created by the “pochoir” process, wherein single layers of color were added by hand to a lithograph using a stencil, in a precursor of the silk screening technique which is now widely used for art prints.  Jean Saudé's masterful contribution to “Variations” makes it a vivid Art Deco folio, a copy of which is housed in the National Art Library at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

Each print is from an original 1924 folio.  The colors are very fresh and vibrant on a heavy,  creamy stock. Each print measures approximately 14 1/2 inches wide by 19 inches long.
