"Maurice Sudan : "still Life With Cake""
Maurice Soudan (1878-1948): "Still Life with Cake", oil on panel 44 X 52 cm mounted in a beautiful silver Art Deco frame with 58 X 65 cm steps, a little disjointed. Signed Mce Soudan. This beautiful Belgian artist went into exile in Toulouse during the First World War where he left pivotal works between the Fauves and the Symbolists imbued with poetry. A retrospective was organized at the Musée des Augustins in 1960. Freed from its old oxidized varnish, this luminous painting with a rigorous composition is revealed by the deliberately simplified touch of Maurice Soudan on an everyday subject in a very Art Deco aesthetic close to that of the Basque Ramiro Arrue.
