Jacques Villon's 'Phèdre et Hyppolite' is a Cubist interpretation of classical mythology, featuring fragmented figures and geometric forms in a muted colour palette. The dynamic composition captures a sense of movement and abstraction.

Jacques Villon, born Gaston Émile Duchamp, was a French Cubist and abstract painter, also known for his printmaking. He was the brother of artists Marcel Duchamp and Suzanne Duchamp-Crotti. Villon developed his own style of Cubism, characterised by geometric forms and a muted colour palette. His work often explored themes of modernity and urban life. 'Phèdre et Hyppolite' presents a scene inspired by classical mythology, rendered in Villon's distinctive Cubist style. The figures are fragmented into geometric shapes, with a limited range of colours. The composition is dynamic, with intersecting lines and planes creating a sense of movement. The figures are identifiable through their poses and gestures, but their forms are abstracted, reflecting the Cubist interest in representing multiple perspectives simultaneously. The background is simplified, with planes of colour suggesting a spatial environment.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
