Jean-Claude Picot (French, 1933 - 2020): Femmes au Jardin a Theoule. Serilithograph in color on paper, signed in plate, unframed.

Jean Claude Picot, a French artist working professionally since 1956, is known for his vibrant, Post-Impressionist style influenced by Fauvist masters. His work, characterized by expressive use of color and form, often depicts landscapes, cityscapes, and festival scenes, with a particular focus on the French Riviera. Picot has held over 50 solo exhibitions worldwide and works in various media, including oils, acrylics, and serigraphy. Critics praise his continuation of the French landscape painting tradition, while collectors internationally seek his bright, cheerful compositions. Dividing his time between the south of France and other locations, Picot captures the essence of Mediterranean light and life in his art, reducing subjects to their essential forms and creating instantly recognizable pieces that blend 20th-century influences with contemporary appeal.
