ALIX DE FAUTEREAU-VASSEL. "Yunnanfou. Eleven xylographs stuck to paper. Signed and numbered 10/50. Titled on the passe-partouts.

The continuous transfers awakened in her a true passion for Asian culture. During the twenty years she lived on the Asian continent, Aymé took advantage of her free time to travel around different countries. In parallel, he taught art at the Lycée Français in Hanoi between 1925 and 1926. After marrying Lieutenant Colonel Georges Aymé in a second marriage, he joined the faculty of the Indochina School of Fine Arts in 1934, together with Joseph Inguimberty. Combining her Nabis heritage with her passion for lacquer, Aymé created works of great delicacy, focused on human subjects, especially women and children with a religious air similar to that of the Madonnas, influenced by her training in the Sacred Art workshops of Maurice Denis. In addition to his mastery of lacquer, he dedicated himself to painting on silk and drawing, developing a unique style characterized by its delicacy and a refined color palette. This distinctive style made Alix Aymé a pioneering artist at the Indochina School of Fine Arts. Rust.
