Aubusson tapestry woven by the Four workshop.
n°EA.
Circa 1960.
Fumeron designed his first cartoons (he would ultimately make over 500) in the 1940’s, in collaboration with the Pinton workshop, he was then commissioned on numerous occasions by the state before participating in the decoration of the ocean liner “France”. His work was figurative to begin with and influenced by Lurçat, then turned towards abstraction, before coming back to a style characterised by colourful figurative and realistic depictions from the 1980’s onwards.
An abstract cartoon, typical of the artist’s work, in a style (and a colour scheme !) which are redolent of Borderie or Wogensky, and whose works produced at this time have nothing of which to be ashamed when compared with those of his contemporaries.
