Biography: Among the painters of the School of Paris, Pascin occupies a special place. His vibrant graphic style, the line only vaguely drawing the contours of the body, allows 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 be seen as an uncompromising follower of the 18th century masters and their taste for freedom and libertinism. His works are held in all the major museums around the world, and many galleries regularly exhibit his work. Pascin also illustrated numerous books, by Marc Orland and Paul Morand among others.
