The stump
Aubusson tapestry woven by the Pinton workshop.
With its ribbon.
Circa 1960.
Fumeron created his first cartoons (he would go on to create over 500) in the 1940s, collaborating with the Pinton workshops, then receiving numerous commissions from the State, before participating in the decoration of the 'France' ocean liner. Initially figurative and influenced by Lurçat, he evolved towards abstraction, before returning to a colorful and realistic figuration from the 1980s onwards.
Strangely, if the title is naturalistic, the cartoon leans towards abstraction, in a kind of purification of Fumeron's figurative cartoons where one still recognizes the characteristic yellow-sun circle of the artist.
