Jean Hugon (1919–1990) – Lithograph – Sailing Ships – Artist’s Proof 1/35

A beautiful original color lithograph by Jean Hugon (1919–1990), depicting a highly stylized seascape filled with sailboats.

Here, the artist creates a particularly luminous composition, dominated by shades of blue, green, turquoise, orange, and yellow, rendered in a highly graphic and decorative style.

Artist’s proof 1/35, signed in pencil by the artist on Arches paper.

This copy is enhanced by a handwritten dedication by Jean Hugon to Raymond Gangloff, artist and ceramicist:

“ To Mr. Raymond Gangloff, in memory of the warm welcome for my exhibition”

A particularly interesting piece due to its decorative quality, its limited edition, and above all, this named provenance and original dedication.

Jean Hugon (Marseille, 1919 – Bordeaux, 1990) was a French painter and lithographer, particularly renowned for his seascapes, harbors, and sailboats, rendered in a personal pictorial style where the simplification of forms is accompanied by a vivid and luminous palette. His work is part of 20th-century French artistic creation and remains particularly associated with the maritime world of the Atlantic coast and the Southwest.

A few slight marks on the corners, slight foxing at the bottom (see photos).
