Marchande d’illusions (the dream vendor)

 

Aubusson tapestry woven by the Pinton workshop.
With label.
Circa 1955.

 

Elie Grekoff, whose aesthetic is similar to that of Lurçat, designed over 300 cartons

“The dream vendor” is typical of a vein characteristic of Grekoff where melancholic children consider each other, as in a scene on a stage, redolent of an illustration for a folk tale.
