A painter, and important printmaker, Laboureur learnt wood engraving with August Lepère and
colour lithography with Toulouse-Lautrec in the later 1890’s, but his fame rests on his mature prints in cubistic style. After more than a decade of extensive travels in Europe and North America, Laboureur returned to France in 1911. After meeting Apollinaire and Marie Laurencin he adopted the cubist aesthetic. A dandy in his person, Laboureur adapted Cubism into a graceful, whimsical, idiosyncratic, personal style.
Sylvain Laboureur 777. Monogrammed in the stone. On Van Gelder Zonen cream laid paper. A little time-stained in the large margins.
