French Chine-Collé Etching On Vellum — La Main De Psyché

1st Dibs

$581

Titled La Main de Psyché, this limited-edition etching is conceived as a graphic work exploring ornament, narration, and historical reference through line and composition.Printed using the chine-collé technique on vellum paper, it asserts a refined material presence while preserving the precision and delicacy of the drawn line.The composition originates from an original drawing by Pierre Marie and is translated into print through traditional etching processes.The use of chine-collé allows for subtle contrasts between the printed image and its paper support, enhancing depth, texture, and tonal nuance.This work was developed in the context of Lupara, an exhibition in which Pierre Marie drew inspiration from the Louvre under Louis XIV.At that time, the lavish decorative programs designed by figures such as Le Vau and Le Brun were conceived to anchor royal power within Paris.The series reinterprets the visual language of the Grand Siècle through a contemporary lens, introducing references to the decorative vocabulary of the 1940s.Produced as a limited edition, each print belongs to a carefully controlled series.Specific edition numbers are available upon request.The work is offered unframed, allowing collectors, decorators, or institutions to adapt the presentation to their own context.Pierre Marie Studio is a Paris-based design studio specializing in the development and fabrication of bespoke decorative artworks and furniture, working closely with architects and interior designers.
