House in the Countryside - L'Oise is a original pencil drawing on paper, realized around 1960s by the French artist André Roland Brudieux (1921-1999). Monogrammed in pencil ''AB“ on the lower left margin. Representing a house immersed in a florid nature with a wise touch and a photographic cut, this modern artwork is in very good conditions, including a cardboard passepartout (cm 34 x 49). On the back, ''L'Oise'' written in pencil, as usual by the artist traveler that reports the place he sketched. André Roland Brudieux (Saint-Moreil, Creuse, France, 1921 – Paris, 1999) The French artist spent his youth in Vendôme, in the departement of Loire-et-Cher, where he worked as a wallpaper stenciller. In 1939 he began to engrave and, in 1941, moved to Paris, studing at the École du Louvre between 1945-1957. Talented draftsman and sensitive artist, André Roland Brudieux was a member of Surrealist mouvement, gravitating around André Breton and participating in Surrealist exhibitions in 1950. He also began to experiment the woodcut technique in 1997. Best-known as engraver or draftsman of natural landscapes, he was also a writer, who attended the great Parisian salons, and a collector of old wallpapers and artwork.
