About the Item

Study with three Angels is a gorgeous pastel drawing realized by Adolphe Léon Willette, a French illustrator, painter, caricaturist, lithographer, and architect. The state of preservation is very good. The paper is applied on a cardboard measuring 22.8 x 14.3 cm. It represents a figure in three quarters, half naked, with different afterthoughts on the position of the legs, whilst playing a lyre. Above, three puttos throw flowers. The artist Adolphe Léon Willette, with his irreverent art, though elegant and floriated in the style, illustrated the spirit of the Bohemia of the crazy Montmartre in the turn of the 20th century. He realized, for instance, the interior decoration and the sign of the legendary Cabaret du Chat Noir, as well as the aspect of the famous Moulin Rouge. The drawing is beautiful in the strokes and in the movement, realized by an important artist, in the typical taste of Paris of the fin de siecle.
