Pierre Alechinsky – La Batteille de Noirlieu (1989)

Pierre Alechinsky is represented here by a particularly strong, highly characteristic, and visually compelling maroufléfrom 1989. Executed over an antique map — typically printed on silk — and subsequently mounted on canvas, the work reflects one of the artist’s most distinctive techniques, in which historical material and spontaneous painterly intervention merge into a uniquely layered composition. The antique cartographic support becomes an integral part of the visual language, creating depth, movement, and a remarkable material presence.

The work is preserved in impeccable condition and is presented in a handcrafted frame of exceptional quality, chosen to complement the painting with restraint and refinement. Together, artwork and frame form a highly attractive collector’s piece with strong presence.
