André Bourrié – The Village (1936)
Stone Lithograph with Acrylic Facing · Professionally Framed
Quietly atmospheric and richly nostalgic, The Village showcases André Bourrié’s early mastery of European landscape and architectural harmony. Created in 1936 as an authentic stone lithograph, this work reflects the intimate charm of provincial life—capturing a village scene with delicacy, structure, and understated emotional resonance.
Bourrié’s approach combines gentle tonal transitions with precise yet softened lines, allowing rooftops, pathways, and facades to emerge in a rhythm that feels timeless. The composition is peaceful without being static; it carries the quiet pulse of rural life, rendered with an artist’s deep affection for place.
Enhanced with acrylic facing for clarity and preservation, and professionally framed, this piece offers both historic craftsmanship and contemporary display quality—making it an exceptional addition for collectors who appreciate refined European landscapes and early 20th-century printmaking.
