Product Details｜
This work presents a signature scene by Louis Icart: a softly rendered female figure in motion, accompanied by coursing hounds, suspended between pursuit and poise.
Executed in delicate tonal gradations, the composition balances fluid linework with a restrained palette, allowing movement to feel both dynamic and composed.
Printed under authorization by SPADEM Paris and BCF Tokyo in 1990, this lithograph reflects the enduring appeal of Icart’s Art Deco sensibility—where elegance is suggested rather than declared.
The work is presented in a dark wood frame with a wide mat, offering quiet contrast and allowing the image to breathe within its space.
