Large embroidered wall canvas depicting an owl perched amidst stylized foliage, typical of 1970s decorative aesthetics. The composition plays on contrasts of shades and textures, offering a dense and graphic rendering.
This type of composition, widely used in interiors during the second half of the 20th century, is part of a popular decorative trend that incorporates certain visual codes from modernist tapestry. One can perceive, in a free and unattributed interpretation, similarities with graphic universes developed by Alain Cornic or Jean Lurçat, without this being a work or an edition linked to these artists.
Made from a printed and then embroidered canvas, this piece is presented in a wooden frame, ready to be hung. A vintage decorative object, it naturally finds its place today in eclectic interiors or those embracing a retro aesthetic.
