Work on deposit Member of the Paris school of the first half of the 20th century, she entered the Académie Julian where she joined the studio of Jean-Paul Laurens. It was in 1907 at the art dealer Henri Bing that she met Jules Pascin, who came from Berlin, who became her mentor. He dragged a sulphurous reputation and they would live a tumultuous relationship due to a second romantic relationship that Pascin had simultaneously with Lucy Krohg. Pascin and Hermine David then led a bohemian life until 1914, surrounded by friends: Georges Braque, Foujita, Juan Gris, Moïse Kisling, and those from the Bateau-Lavoir: Max Jacob, Suzanne Valadon, Maurice de Vlaminck.
