Menguy painting and Bakongo statue My dear, Here are the two new announcements: 1180 euros for the Menguy painting and 320 euros for the statue. All photos are retouched. THANKS. Baci dolci. MENGUY (Frédéric), born in Paris on January 28, 1927 and died in Paris on March 23, 2007 (Ec. Fr.). Very early on, passionate about drawing and painting, Frédéric MENGUY trained in evening classes in the workshops of the city of Paris. In 1956, then a professor of art drawing, he devoted himself entirely to painting and lithography. From 1966, after discovering the Corbières massif where he settled for a time, his painting became very colorful. Patrice de la Perrière paid tribute to him by affirming that behind an ostentatious joy, the paintings of Frédéric MENGUY send us back a certain nostalgia for our childish soul. The works of Frédéric MENGUY appear in many renowned private collections. Some were also acquired by the French state. This superb work, an oil on canvas from the 1970s titled “White Flowers”, is a reflection of the talent of this great artist. Signature at the bottom left of the composition. Dimensions: Height 55 cm. Width 46 cm (72.5 cm x 63.5 cm with its frame). Work in good condition. Some normal wear and tear to the frame.
