Drawing

B ernard Buffet was a prolific French painter known for his stark, angular figurative style that stood in contrast to the post-war rise of abstraction, earning him international acclaim and major honors such as the Légion d’Honneur. His highly collectible works—found in institutions like MoMA, Tate Modern, and the Bernard Buffet Museum—remain strong performers at auction, with top results exceeding $1.5 million.
