Description
Expressive color lithograph by French artist Robert Savary (1898–1988) depicting a Paris street scene in Montmartre with the dome of the Basilica of Sacré-Cœur rising through winter trees. The composition captures the atmosphere of the historic hilltop district with loose architectural forms, animated black linework, and soft pastel tones of blue, violet, and warm color accents. Savary’s energetic drawing style conveys both the structure of the Parisian streetscape and the poetic ambiance of Montmartre. This example is hand signed in pencil “R. Savary” at the lower right and numbered 102/125 at the lower left, from a limited edition. Savary’s lithographs of Paris subjects are among his most recognizable works and were widely exhibited in French galleries during the mid-20th century. The image is closely related to a composition used for a 1964 exhibition poster for Galerie 65, Cannes, further documenting the work within the artist’s graphic production. This piece was printed sometime between 1960-1964. Savary was associated with the École de Paris (School of Paris) and exhibited in major French salons including the Salon d’Automne and Salon des Tuileries. His lithographs frequently portray Paris neighborhoods, Montmartre views, and Mediterranean landscapes, rendered with lively draftsmanship and painterly color. On the verso, this print bears the oval collector’s stamp of George Zorin, a respected New York dealer, specializing in Old Master and 19th-century prints. Zorin’s collection, built over several decades, are widely recognized in the American print trade, and his stamp provides reassuring provenance for works on paper from this period. With frame, this piece measures 26.5 inches x 31.5 inches. This piece is matted and framed under acrylic in a golden frame.
