Rogi-Andre (Rosa Klein) - Chaim Soutine in Death Paris 1943
A beautiful and surreal postmortem with crossed hands and lilies. Soutine was a Jewish Lithuanian-born French painter with a highly individualistic style, characterized by the use of thick impasto, agitated brushwork, convulsive compositional rhythms, and the presence of disturbing psychological content. Soutine came to Paris in 1913, where he lived humbly in a circle of other Jewish émigré artists, such as Chagall, Lipchitz, and Kisling. Soutine found his own personal expressive style of painting in 1918. He was one of Modigliani’s closest friends and greatest admirers. He died of a perforated ulcer and the inability to quickly get medical assistance in occupied Paris. He is often associated as a Jewish martyr.
