EDITORS COMMENTS
This pochoir print, titled "Le Deramantnier" is a mesmerizing illustration from the renowned collection of Les Chansons de Bilitis by Pierre Louys. Created in 1922 by Georges Barbier, this artwork exudes an air of eroticism and sensuality that was characteristic of the Art Deco movement. In this scene set in ancient Greece, we witness a wounded and bleeding female figure kneeling with an arrow piercing her heart. The woman's nakedness symbolizes vulnerability and raw emotion, while her braided hair adds to the classical aesthetic. Surrounding her are wild roses, adding a touch of natural beauty to the composition. The image hints at themes of lesbian desire and homosexuality as it explores the complex nature of love and passion. It invites viewers to contemplate notions of injury and wounds inflicted upon oneself for love's sake. Barbier's meticulous attention to detail shines through his delicate rendering techniques in this pochoir print. Each stroke captures the essence of both botanical elements like flowers and human anatomy flawlessly. As part of The Stapleton Collection held privately, this piece represents a significant contribution to French art history during the early 20th century. Its fusion of ancient Greek motifs with Art Deco aesthetics creates a visually striking work that continues to captivate audiences today.
