Original Description
Jean Emile Laboureur's Sur Le Quai A Istanbul (On the Quay in Istanbul) is a captivating early 20th-century print that exudes the quiet dynamism of a bustling port city. Created during Laboureur’s peak period (circa 1910s–1920s), the work reflects his signature modernist approach, blending Cubist-inspired geometry with the lyrical fluidity of Art Deco. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Istanbul’s waterfront, the scene depicts elegantly stylized figures and boats, rendered with clean lines and rhythmic patterns—a testament to his training under Paul Gauguin and influence from the avant-garde movements. Laboureur’s work occupies a unique niche in art history, bridging post-Impressionist experimentation and the decorative precision of interwar graphic arts. Sur Le Quai A Istanbul exemplifies his mastery of translating urban energy into composed, almost musical visual harmony, making it a prized example of early modernist printmaking.
For a sophisticated interior, this print would thrive in a study, office, or minimalist living room. Its muted yet warm palette—ochres, soft blacks, and earthy tones—pairs beautifully with mid-century modern furniture or Scandinavian wood accents. Choose a medium-sized frame (approximately 50x60 cm) in a slim, matte black or walnut finish to emphasize its graphic lines. Hang it in a well-lit alcove or above a console table to let the composition breathe, accompanied by subdued textiles like linen or wool in matching hues. In a workspace, it injects cultured restraint; pair it with a vintage brass desk lamp or a sleek, monochrome rug for cohesion. The scene’s rhythm also complements open-plan spaces, acting as a subtle focal point without overwhelming the room’s flow.
