Here is a very beautiful brown ink around 1920 by Jules Pascin representing a lively scene of women, a man with a hat who seems to be posing and a child playing with a hoop.
The work is signed Pascin in ink and is doubled with the stamp of the Pascin workshop.
The whole is presented framed under glass Dimensions including frame: 51.5 x 37 centimeters
Biography:
Among the painters of the School of Paris, Pascin occupies a special place. His vibrant graphics, the line only vaguely drawing the contours of the body, allow him to render his models bathed in a light that reflects more a state of mind than the reality of a body. As such, he can appear as an uncompromising continuator of the masters of the 18th century and their taste for freedom and libertinism. His works are held in all the major museums of the world, and many galleries regularly exhibit his work.
Pascin has also illustrated many books, by Marc Orland and Paul Morand among others.
