Jean-Pierre Rossignol

The Peyrou in Montpellier

The Peyrou in Montpellier

Formerly Place Royale, with its monumental triumphal arch, its basins, its water tower and its statue of the Sun King sculpted by Pierre Mazeline and Simon Hurtrelle, the Peyrou is the pride of the city of Montpellier (Hérault - France).

Using chisels with triangular edges, the design is cut into a steel or copper plate. The pattern is thus created in hollow form with its full, thin strokes and precise lines .

There is no "repentance" . The artist must have absolute control over his gesture and the force of his pressure; his chisel removes with each stroke a shaving of metal corresponding to the value of the line, whether filiform or bolder.

The particularity of the burin is to collect the ink in the hollow of the line . The complete plate is inked then carefully wiped so as not to leave any ink on the flat parts. The moistened sheet of paper is placed on the plate and powerfully applied by a press. The ink is transferred onto the paper, which, by flexibility, is returned to the hollows .

We are home again and our little "Jurga" has found her spot. We are delighted with our acquisition and we are very happy to have it with us. We were very happy to meet you and exchanged together about the artist and her work. Thank you also for your warm welcome at the Europ'Art Gallery in Aigues Mortes.

We came across Jurga's work whilst travelling in France recently, but did not have time then to seriously consider our options. At home, I checked online as to what pieces were available. Your gallery was one of those which registered a hit. The website was nicely presented and easily navigable.

This is the best art gallery in Montpellier. The artists who exhibit there are excellent and one is captivated by the beauty of the sculptures and paintings. Very friendly openings take place there and we can just meet the artists.
