Executed with oil, collage, and heavily textured materials; signed lower right, circa 1980s.  A heavily textured profile and layered horizontal relief are set against a pale, weathered ground punctuated by fragmented typography, gestural marks, and touches of orange, red, green, and violet. The work exemplifies Coignard’s material-driven abstraction, combining figuration, collage-like elements, typography, and distressed surfaces that evoke archaeological fragments and aged manuscripts. Provenance: From a private estate in Waterford, Michigan; accompanied by a documented appraisal from Irv Fischer Gallery, Birmingham, Michigan, dated 2001. Dimensions: 19.75”h x 23.25”w x 2.25”d (framed). In very good condition. Full condition report available upon request. James Coignard (1925–2008) was a French painter, printmaker, and sculptor known for his richly textured abstract compositions and innovative approach to mixed media. After studying at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Nice, he developed a distinctive visual language incorporating collage, fragmented typography, numbers, symbols, and deliberately weathered surfaces. Coignard worked extensively in painting and printmaking, particularly carborundum engraving, and exhibited internationally throughout Europe, the United States, and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2684\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Le Shoppe Modern","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68230749225210,"sku":"880117413300","price":7200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0539\/1155\/2181\/files\/57_c14999d5-0ee8-475b-8f1c-3c68f8f58dd9.jpg?v=1794694146","url":"https:\/\/leshoppemodern.com\/products\/james-coignard-profil-et-stratification-horizontale-19-5-x-23-25-c-1980s","provider":"Le Shoppe Modern","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
