Description:
Jules Pascin was a Bulgarian painter who, contrary to his American citizenship, found his primary audience and success in Paris during the early twentieth century. In his early life, he frequently moved through Europe and America (particularly the South) before gaining citizenship in the United States and returning to Paris. He is best known for his drawings of women, often of prostitutes. This interest in the female body, particularly a non-posed and candid one, carried through his entire artistic career. His practice focused particularly on this female body as a means for evoking character, personality, and emotion apart from the face. He is often considered central to the emerging Paris art scene in the 1900s and was revered in his lifetime for his eccentric, esoteric persona and artwork.
In this etching, Jules Pascin illustrates a sleeping figure. The figure is slumped over with his eyes closed. The composition makes use of very thin light lines to communicate its subject. One thing of note about the paper of the etching is that it has been cut on the lower right corner. The cut spans from the center of the lower edge to the center of the right edge, transforming the rectangle into a pentagonal shape.
