Clément KONS / CHARMAGUEY - ORIGINAL PROJECTS FROM THE PARIS WORKSHOPS OF CLÉMENT KONS AND CHARMAGUEY: RAYURES. +/- 345 x 180 mm; support: 475 x 340 to 565 x 380 mm. In sheets. 2 projects excepted, all bear the dry stamp of "C K Paris). Handwritten mark in graphite, beginning with the letter "K". Nice sample of compositions with stripes or stripes and crosses, in the tones black and white, blue-green & orange, orange-black and fuschia, bichromes (orange and black, black & sky blue...). Numbers 175 to 182 offer a very nice set of gouaches and watercolors from these Parisian workshops. These works cover the Art Deco period until the 1950s. They combine a great finesse of execution both in the choice of motifs and in the choice of colors. This collection contains projects for wallpaper and furnishing and decorative fabrics and a project for scarves (No. 175). Clément KONS (Mulhouse, 1879 - Paris, 1956), naturalized in 1928, established himself in Paris at that time as a "draftsman for printing on fabrics" at 17, rue Saint Fiacre in the 2nd district. He is listed in the Industrial Directory, under the activity of "Drawings of all kinds for printing on fabrics, silk and cotton. In 1931, his company was transferred to 70 rue de l'Aqueduc in the 10th arrondissement, and the Annuaire Général de l'Industrie et du Commerce mentioned his activity as "Designer for prints on fabrics". Charmaguey, of whom we could not find the trace, probably collaborated with Kons or succeeded him as testifies a project which carries their seal or joint mark.
