Elmyr De Hory (1906-1976) - Retrato

Elmyr de Hory (1906–1976) Pen on paper. Hand-signed. Original work by Elmyr de Hory, one of the most fascinating artists of the 20th century. The drawing depicts an elegant standing female nude, created through a delicate play of light and shadow that models the body's volume with extraordinary economy of means. The composition evidences the artist's deep academic training and his admiration for French painting of the first half of the 20th century. The stylization of the neck, the serenity of the face, and the monumental nature of the figure evoke the influence of Amedeo Modigliani, while the free handling of the charcoal recalls the tradition of Henri Matisse and the School of Paris. Elmyr demonstrates in this work that, beyond his famous ability to recreate the styles of other artists, he possessed a solid personality as a draughtsman. The figure emerges from the paper through a subtle tonal modelling, where chiaroscuro takes on absolute prominence and imparts great sensitivity and elegance to the composition. Hand-signed by the artist in the lower right corner. Technique: Charcoal on paper. Condition: Very good.
