  • Courrier Sud (mail heading south)

     
    Aubusson tapestry, woven for Jean Laurent. With label, n°1/6. 1976.
    Better known for his geometrically inspired paintings incorporating on occasion mechanical elements, Gachon who came originally from Aubusson, did however design a certain number of tapestry cartoons. This particular example is somewhat atypical of his work.
  • les oiseaux (birds)

        Aubusson tapestry woven in the Legoueix workshop. n°4/6. Circa 1970.       It was in 1953 that Jean Picart le Doux proposed to Chaye to become his assistant and encouraged him to design tapestry cartoons : he would produce numerous bucolic cartoons, but also views of Normandy (Mont Saint Michel, Honfleur, regattas,...) whence he came. Here birds and trelliswork cohabit in a style very reminiscent of Picart le Doux.
