The scene unfolds within the Portrait of Mimi Laurent, a work that captures a quiet, private moment. Painted by Jules Pascin in 1928, the image presents a woman with brown hair as she sits in a moment of stillness. She is the central presence in this composition, her gaze directed downward as if lost in thought or perhaps observing something just out of view. The atmosphere feels intimate, as if…
In this painting, titled Nude and Cupid, the artist Jules Pascin explores a classical mythological theme. The work presents a nude female figure accompanied by a small Cupid, rendered in a style that feels both intimate and modern. It is a piece that captures a specific sense of movement and grace through its subject matter.
is a formal portrait executed by Jules Pascin in 1909. The work presents a man in a composed, seated posture, captured during a period when the artist was developing a distinct voice within the European art scene. This oil on panel study focuses on the character and presence of the sitter, William Howard.
A young girl sits alone, her gaze drifting away from the viewer toward an unseen point in the distance. She is a figure of profound stillness, wrapped in a heavy, dark dress that seems to absorb the very light around her. The palette is somber, built from deep blacks, muted purples, and earthy ochre, creating a world that feels hushed and private. There is a weight to her presence, a…
The oil on canvas titled La Mélancolique was painted by Jules Pascin. Created about 1909, the work captures a solitary woman in a moment of stillness. She sits alone, her body turned inward toward the wooden chair that holds her weight. The figure is a quiet anchor within the frame.
This close-up portrait focuses on the head and shoulders of the subject, who is positioned slightly off-center within the frame. The perspective is set at eye-level, establishing an intimate connection between the subject and the viewer. Lighting originates from the upper left, casting soft shadows across the right side of the face and the neck. These shadows define the contours of the facial structure and the folds of the clothing.
The artwork titled The Foolish Virgins was painted by Jules Pascin in 1909. This oil on canvas work measures 46.0 x 55.0cm and is presented in a landscape format. The piece is currently held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where it is identified by the inventory number 1984.433.21.
The oil painting titled Seating nude was created by Jules Pascin in 1907. This work emerged during the early years of the artist's career, a period when his brush began to find its specific weight. The canvas captures a single figure, a seated nude, rendered with a focus on the physical presence of the body.
In the portrait titled Lady Wearing a Turban by Jules Pascin, the composition centers on a solitary female figure in a seated pose. The arrangement focuses the viewer's attention primarily on the subject’s face and upper body. This arrangement creates a sense of introspection through her downcast gaze and contemplative posture. The perspective is flattened, which minimizes the sense of spatial recession. Depth is achieved through tonal variations rather than…
Hermine in the Large Hat is an oil on canvas portrait by Jules Pascin. Created around 1917, the work focuses on a female subject characterized by her prominent, wide-brimmed hat. The sitter is presented in a close-up composition, capturing her from the waist up.
