This lot consists of a hand painted oil on canvas rendered in style of the Russian Expressionist painter Chaïm Soutine (1893-1943)
Chaïm Soutine was a Russian painter who made a major contribution to the expressionist movement while living and working in Paris. Inspired by classic painting in the European tradition, exemplified by the works of Rembrandt, Chardin and Courbet, Soutine developed an individual style more concerned with shape, colour, and texture over representation, which served as a bridge between more traditional approaches and the developing form of Abstract Expressionism.
