Original Lithograph by Edouard Pignon, signed by the artist. IV/LX Edition, 38 x 56 cm. In very good condition. Édouard Pignon is a French painter of the new School of Paris , born on February 12 , 1905in Bully-les-Mines ( Pas-de-Calais ) and died onMay 14 , 1993in La Couture-Boussey ( Eure ). His abundant work, which is difficult to classify, develops in series around various themes which follow one another or unfold simultaneously, sometimes overlapping: dramas of the working condition, boat sails and olive tree trunks, peasant labor, cockfights , horror of wars, naked divers and solar beaches. With Picasso , whom he was close to for three decades, he fought in the 1950s against the systematism of socialist realism , without however joining his non-figurative painter friends with whom he very frequently exhibited from the 1940s in France and abroad.
