<Grande ocre tache jaune pâle>

From the 1960s onward, Olivier Debré developed his series of Signe-Paysages [Sign-Landscapes], beginning with rhythmic ink variations on paper. Grande ocre tache jaune pâle [Large Ochre, Pale Yellow Stain] is reminiscent of this series, unfolding across a fluid background with large, textured brushstrokes around the edges. Harmonious shades of yellow, orange, and black contrast with olive green, evoking the French landscapes of Touraine and the banks of the Loire—places to which the artist held a deep, personal connection.
