Émile Compard Abstract Oil on Canvas, France circa 1950s

Offered by Antik Center Berlin, specialists in European fine art and antique furniture. Émile François Jacques Compard (1900–1977), abstract oil on canvas, signed lower left “Compard”. Compard studied at the École nationale supérieure des beaux‑arts, the Académie Julian and the Académie cubiste d’Araujo in Paris, and became one of the leading representatives of post‑war French abstraction. Until 1946 he painted mainly in a realist style, but his breakthrough came with his shift towards non‑figurative painting, as seen in this dynamic abstract composition. The work combines structured geometry with a refined palette, typical of the École de Paris and Compard’s mature period. Homify. Technique: oil on canvas. Dimensions (canvas): 62 × 50 cm.
