1963 French Village Ink Drawing – Voskaerts

This striking 1963 architectural ink drawing by Voskaerts captures the quiet grandeur of a Provençal village square. Rendered in bold black strokes, the central clocktower rises from a grouping of rustic stone buildings, their details sketched with expressive charm. The scene evokes a sense of timeless French life—perhaps a mairie, a quiet place of civic pride. Set behind glass with a rich wine-colored mat and classic gilt frame, the piece is both minimalist and evocative. Originally framed in Cannes by A. Focardi, a respected atelier of the mid-century Riviera, this signed drawing is a testament to the enduring elegance of ink on paper.
