Aubusson tapestry woven by the Picaud workshop.
With its bolduc signed by the artist, n°1/4.
1971.

Loewer made his first cartoon in 1953; his works were initially figurative before he turned (as did Matégot) toward abstraction, exclusively geometric in Loewer's case. He would create more than 180 cartoons, most of which were woven by his friend Raymond Picaud.

Around 1971–1972, Loewer's style became more refined, with fewer squares and brighter, more variegated colors. As is often the case with Loewer, our tapestry is unique.
