Jules Pascin Landscape Paintings
Bulgarian, French, 1885-1930
Jules Pascin was born Julius Mordecai Pincas, in Widdin, Bulgaria to a Spanish-Sephardic Jewish father and a Serbian-Italian mother. His early artistic training was in Vienna and Munich. In 1905, at the age of 20, he adopted the pseudonym Pascin (an anagram of Pincas). About the same time, he began contributing drawings to Simplicissimus, a satirical magazine published in Munich.
In December 1905, Pascin moved to Paris, becoming part of the great migration of artists to that city at the start of the 20th century. In 1907, Pascin met Hermine Lionette Cartan David, also a painter, and they became lovers. They lived together until Pascin left for America on October 3, 1914. A few weeks later on October 31, Hermine David sailed for the United States to join Pascin.
Pascin lived in the United States from 1914 to 1920, sitting out World War I. He taught at the Telfair Academy in Savannah, Georgia, associated with the Telfair Art Museum. He and Hermine painted in New York City as well as in Miami, New Orleans, and Cuba.
Despite his social life, Pascin created thousands of watercolors and sketches, plus drawings and caricatures, which he sold to various newspapers and magazines. He studied the art of drawing at the Académie Colarossi and, like Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, he drew upon his surroundings and his friends, both male and female, as subjects. He wanted to become a serious painter, but in time, he became deeply depressed over his inability to achieve critical success with his efforts.
During the 1920s, Pascin mostly painted fragile petites filles, prostitutes waiting for clients, or models waiting for the sitting to end. His fleetingly rendered paintings sold readily, but the money he made was quickly spent. Famous as the host of numerous large parties in his flat, whenever he was invited elsewhere for dinner, he arrived with as many bottles of wine as he could carry. He frequently led a large group of friends on summer picnics beside the River Marne, where their excursions lasted all afternoon.
Ernest Hemingway's chapter titled "With Pascin At the Dôme," in A Moveable Feast, recounted a night in 1923 when he had stopped off at Le Dôme and met Pascin escorted by two models. Hemingway's portrayal of the evening is considered one of the defining images of Montparnasse at the time.
Pascin struggled with depression and alcoholism. "[D]riven to the wall by his own legend," according to art critic Gaston Diehl, he committed suicide at the age of 45 on the eve of a prestigious solo show. He slit his wrists and hung himself in his studio in Montmartre. On the wall he left a message written in blood, to a former lover, Cecile (Lucy) Vidil Krohg In his last will and testament, Pascin left his estate equally to his wife, Hermine David, and his mistress Lucy Krohg.to
