Description

Provence, in the south-eastern region of France is known for its sun-drenched lavender and olive groves, and this original signed pastel by Lionel Aggett beautifully captures the landscape. Lionel Aggett (1938 - 2009) was a landscape painter, muralist, architect and writer. He was born in Whiddon Down, Devon and educated at Exeter School. Looking through recently sold artworks by this artist, his drawings of the French countryside in pastel appear to be the most popular and are starting to command steady and respectable sums when they come on the market. His artistic training and command of this medium is plain to see. Lionel was an artist who could convey distance and perspective with ease and transport the viewer to this much-loved area of France - you can almost feel the heat and hear the rhythmic buzz of the cicadas. The dimensions below are for the frame - the art work measure approx. 30 cm high x 40 cm wide.

FAQs

Pastel painting gained significant prominence during the Renaissance and reached a peak in popularity during the 18th century with portraitists, later being adopted by Impressionist artists to capture transient effects of light and atmosphere in landscapes.

Pastels consist of powdered pigment combined with a binder, applied to textured surfaces such as heavy-weight artist paper, card, or prepared canvas to ensure the dry pigment adheres properly.

Authenticity is typically verified by examining artist signatures, observing the genuine texture of chalk or pigment dust under magnification, checking for archival backing materials, and confirming period-appropriate framing techniques.

Such artworks are best displayed in simple, neutral frames with museum glass to protect the delicate surface, hung at eye level on a complementary wall colour to draw focus without overwhelming the space.

Pastels must be framed under glass with a spacer to prevent the artwork from touching the glass surface, and should be kept away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and excessive vibration.
