"Athenes", Crayon and Watercolor Drawing by Michel Lattry

About the Item

Full of energy and yet ethereal and otherworldly, this gorgeous drawing was made by Michel Lattry, whose whimsical and light art is consistently delightful. This drawing, with its tangle of horses and overwhelmed Athenians, is an especially fine example of Lattry's work. One of many Russian emigre artists working in France before World War II, Lattry's Russian name was Mikhail (or Misha) Pelopidovich Lattry.
