Drawing, Bar Galliera
This is a Drawing. It is dated ca. 1950. Its medium is pen and ink, brush and gouache, collage on paper. It is a part of the Drawings, Prints, and Graphic Design department.
This drawing is a spectacular evocation of Matégot’s design approach. The colorful, yet sophisticated palette and the slender, low-slung furnishings tie the drawing directly to Matégot’s Japanese- and Scandinavian-inspired designs for chairs, tables, and cabinets.
