Marcel Depre

Plaza

Marcel Depre - "Plaza": Marcel Depre worked extensively in the south of France and in Northern Spain. An original lithograph, "Plaza" probably depicts the town square of a small city near the Spanish border. The artist's concerns with geometric form and function are here analyzed through the varying shapes of the buildings, the steps and the lines within the pavement of the actual plaza. This original impression is printed upon fine, archival paper and with full margins as published around 1970. It is pencil signed and numbered by Marcel Depre within the image along the lower margin.
