About This Piece

Madagascar. Cote Est. Embouchure en Rivière (The East Coast of Madagascar) is an original modern artwork realized in the middle of the XX Century by the French Artist André Ragot (1894 - 1971). Watercolor on rigid ivory paper. Hand-signed on the lower left corner: A. Ragot. White passepartout is included (cm 49 x 69) Image Dimensions：35 x 44.5 cm Mint condition. Delicate but expressive watercolor on paper depicting the east coast of Madagascar, maybe a view on Saint Marie Island, the pearl of the east coast of Madagascar. The colors are characterized by a great expressionism and by an interesting contrast, especially between the land, la mountains on the background and the sea. This work has been realized by André Ragot (1894 - 1971). André Ragot was a naval officer and French watercolorist. Indeed he is also recognized as intimate watercolourist, and left many works and sketches taken from life, in particular of young sailors (he met all his models and each of his works keeps on the back the name, profession, year, the place in all the ports he visited). He also brought back numerous watercolors from the Far East, Indochina and the Middle East. He was also an eminent member of the association of friends of Pierre Loti, of the Renan circle and of the Rationalist Union.
