OIL ON CARDBOARD BY JEAN DENIS MALCLES LANDSCAPE 1933 H3988This oil on cardboard by Jean-Denis Malclès represents a landscape of Provence, it bears a dedication on the back "A Simone bien amiamenement Paysage de Provence Work of youth a long time ago". Jean-Denis Malclès is a French painter, poster designer and decorator (1912-2002). We owe him in particular the creation of the Jacques Brothers costume and several cinema and theater posters, including that of Beauty and the Beast by Jean Cocteau. From 1948 to 1981, he created the sets and costumes for most of Jean Anouilh's plays, establishing a real osmosis with the author who recognized in him the decorator capable "of traveling to the country of his own dreams and restoring them to him". . He also works for the Compagnie Renaud-Barrault, which makes Jean-Louis Barrault say: “Jean-Denis Malclès is more than an illustrator; also much more than a painter: he integrates himself into the piece, conceives its movement and the spirit, in a word, forgets itself. He is first and foremost a director.” This oil on cardboard is in its own juice, nature, note wear and friction, scratches, gaps in places. The colors remained vivid.
