Tapestry woven by the Claire Rado workshop.
With its bolduc signed by the artist.
c. 1965.
Claire Rado designed and wove in 1964, in her workshop in Suresnes, her first tapestry, which she subsequently exhibited at the Galerie La Demeure. She wove her own Cartoons, but, as Daquin or Coffinet did for example, she also transposed the works of others (Soulages in particular, regarding Claire Rado). Monumental figures woven in succession to her first, abstract tapestries, while the warp around it was left exposed.
Tapestry from the early period of the artist, where the drawing served her technical mastery.
