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 appear as an uncompromising successor of the 18th century masters and their taste for freedom and libertinism. His works are preserved in all the major museums of the world, and many galleries present regularly his work.
Pascin also illustrated numerous books, by Marc Orland and Paul Morand among others.
