Original Description
"Vitesse II" by Louis Icart is a mesmerizing Art Deco masterpiece that embodies the glamour and dynamism of the Roaring Twenties. Created in the 1920s, this iconic etching and drypoint print captures a stylish woman with windswept hair, her fur coat billowing as she leans into a speeding convertible—an emblem of liberation and modern femininity. Icart’s fluid lines and meticulous chiaroscuro technique reflect his academic training and Japonisme influences, blending elegance with subtle eroticism. As one of his most celebrated "speed series" works, "Vitesse II" represents the golden age of Art Deco, where fashion, technology, and art converged. Today, it remains a coveted piece among collectors, symbolizing both the sophistication and rebellious spirit of interwar Paris.
For interior styling, "Vitesse II" lends timeless sophistication to spaces craving a touch of vintage glamour. Ideal for a study, lounge, or office, it pairs beautifully with rich materials like velvet furnishings, chrome accents, or herringbone wood floors that echo its Art Deco roots. Frame it in a slender black or gold-leaf frame to complement its high-contrast palette, and hang it at eye level (center at 57–60 inches) in moderate lighting to highlight its delicate details. In minimalist rooms, let it serve as a bold focal point; in eclectic settings, harmonize it with jewel tones (emerald, sapphire) or metallic finishes. A medium-to-large size (e.g., 24×36 inches) ensures visual impact without overwhelming smaller spaces, making it a versatile statement piece for both contemporary and classic interiors.
