The Jonques
Aubusson tapestry woven by the Four workshop.
With its bolduc signed by the artist, n°1/6.
Circa 1980.
Toffoli devoted himself extensively to tapestry with the Robert Four manufactory, starting in 1976, producing hundreds of cartoons. One finds there the post-Cubist transparencies specific to the painter, as well as his subjects. Indeed, Toffoli's tapestry does not set itself apart from his painting: painter-traveller, he illustrates in our cartoon the jonques observed during stays in the Far East.
