BERNARD BUFFET - Lot 363
BERNARD BUFFET
In profile in front of his painting "Spiritus Sanctus," 1960s. Photograph, vintage silver print, annotated on the back. 27.2 x 21 cm. A few tears in the paper, visible mainly when held up to the light.
Note: This photograph from the 1960s shows Bernard Buffet in profile in front of his painting *Spiritus Sanctus*, offering a particularly evocative glimpse of the artist standing before one of his creations. A leading figure in postwar French painting, Buffet made his mark with an instantly recognizable style characterized by energetic draftsmanship, sharp lines, and an often somber view of the human condition. Going against the grain of the abstraction that was dominant at the time, he remains one of the most famous and most debated figurative painters of his era. This image highlights the dialogue between the artist and his work, while illustrating the central role that the spiritual dimension played in some of his compositions. It is a valuable document on one of the most influential French painters of the 20th century.
