Bernard Sejourne Art

Haitian, 1947-2005
Born on November 20, 1947, in Port-au-Prince, Bernard Séjourné began studying art formally after graduating from high school. Painter and sculptor were the best-known artists of the school of art known as the School of Beauty, which honors women. His work depicts beauty, elegance, and grace. His themes were mostly women, and flowers sometimes landscapes. Séjourné liked to paint on large surfaces of Masonite in acrylic to heighten the effect of movement, which he created by his use of fluid lines. His colors range from cool to tropical. "Sejourné's mastery of space and volume create near-abstract works of referential elements." (Peintres Haitiens , Gerald Alexis, Editions Cercle d'Art, 2000.) Séjourné exhibited at Calfou and the Esso Salon in Port-au-Prince in 1965; he participated in the Festival of Black Art held in Dakar in 1956, in Montreal Expo in 1957, at the French Institute of Haiti in 1972. Haitian art collectors have highly valued his work. Since his recent death, he has become one of the highly sought-after collectibles. Baron Philippe de Rothschild commissioned one of his paintings and used it on the label of his 1986 vintage Chateau Mouton-Rothschild, Pauillac wine bottle.

Original 1986 Bernard Séjourné Château Mouton Rothschild Poster

By Bernard Séjourné

Located in PARIS, FR

This original poster reproduces the celebrated 1986 Château Mouton Rothschild label, created by French artist Bernard Séjourné for one of Bordeaux's most prestigious First Growth estates. Since 1945, Château Mouton Rothschild has commissioned a different artist each year to create the artwork for its vintage label, transforming every bottle into a meeting point between fine wine and contemporary art. Over the decades, the estate has collaborated with some of the greatest names of the twentieth century, including Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Marc Chagall, Salvador Dalí, Andy Warhol, Francis Bacon and Keith Haring. For the 1986 vintage, Baron Philippe de Rothschild selected an artwork by Bernard Séjourné, inspired by a painting on wood executed in Haiti, as indicated by the inscription: "Peinture sur bois réalisée en Haïti par Bernard Séjourné." The composition presents three stylized, dreamlike figures floating against a deep black background beneath a luminous moon. The simplicity of the forms, combined with their sculptural appearance and peaceful expressions, evokes both Haitian folk art traditions and the poetic symbolism characteristic of Séjourné's work. The label also records the remarkable production figures of the vintage: "La récolte 1986 a produit 291.800 bordelaises et demies, 7.250 magnums et jéroboams..." Most importantly, the vintage marked Baron Philippe de Rothschild's 64th harvest at Mouton Rothschild, a fact proudly noted on the label itself: "Ma 64ème vendange." The 1986 vintage therefore occupies a special place in the long history of the château, representing one of the final harvests overseen personally by the visionary Baron who transformed Mouton Rothschild into one of the world's most celebrated wine estates. Widely regarded as one of the finest Bordeaux vintages of the 1980s, the 1986 Mouton Rothschild has become legendary among collectors and wine enthusiasts, further enhancing the historical significance of the label and its accompanying artwork. This poster perfectly illustrates the unique identity of Château Mouton Rothschild, where viticulture, culture and artistic patronage have been inseparably linked for generations. The combination of Bernard Séjourné's poetic imagery, the prestige of Pauillac's First Growth vineyard, and the historical importance of Baron Philippe de Rothschild's long stewardship make this work particularly appealing to collectors of wine memorabilia...
