Pierre Frey | Victor Hugo Monocolore

Victor Hugo Monocolore is a toile de Tours reproducing a lampas from the second half of the seventeenth century — a stylised floral motif held in strict symmetrical composition. The single-register treatment concentrates attention on the drawing itself: structure, balance, the grand manner in outline. It is formal decoration at its most legible, and it lends a room architecture as much as ornament.
