"Bouquet de Noél" Framed Lithograph
Bernard Cathelin, 1966
Lithograph on Arches paper
Numbered and signed by the artist
Created in 1966, Bouquet de Noël exemplifies Bernard Cathelin’s distinctive approach to color, form, and still life. The composition centers on a stylized floral arrangement rendered in saturated reds and pinks, rising from a deep rose vessel and set against a softly structured architectural ground.
Broad planes of warm cream, muted mauve, and pale stone frame the bouquet, while a vivid red horizontal band anchors the composition at the base. Cathelin’s handling is expressive yet controlled, balancing painterly gesture with compositional clarity. The flowers are suggested through layered color and simplified forms rather than precise botanical detail, emphasizing rhythm and presence over realism.
Printed on Arches paper, the lithograph retains subtle variations in tone and surface, underscoring the artist’s sensitivity to material and color. The result is a confident, luminous still life that reflects Cathelin’s mature mid-century style.
