Jules Pascin (1885–1930) Jeune fille au fauteuil Paris, 1927 Oil on canvas Signed upper right 100 × 81 cm During the 1920s, Jules Pascin gave his paintings a pearlescent quality. The model’s honey-colored skin blends into the iridescent background. Pascin’s tumultuous relationships with women inspired a risqué graphic novel by Johann Sfar. It is impossible to identify which of the “garçonnes” in the painter’s circle—Lucy Krohg, Hermine David, and others—served as the model for this painting, certainly one of the masterpieces of his pearlescent period.
