Henri Le Fauconnier Portrait Of A Woman

Beautiful portrait of a woman by Henri Le Fauconnier (1881-1946). This portrait very probably represents his wife, Maroussia Barannikoff, with whom he retired to Grosrouvre in the Yvelines. Whereas before the 1914 war, he frequented and participated in all the avant-gardes alongside Henri Matisse, Albert Gleizes, Guillaume Apollinaire, Fernand Léger, Robert Delaunay, Alexander Archipenko, Jan Toorop, Amedeo Modigliani or Vassily Kandinsky, Writing at the request of the latter the introductory text of the Neue Kunstlervereinigung in Munich in 1910, he disappeared from artistic news after having left Paris. The monogrammed painting in the center of the painting has been restored and is framed in a molded oak frame from the beginning of the 20th century. The dimensions of the painting without frame are 46x38 cm
