작품 상세

ELIE NADELMAN Head of a Woman. Drypoint on imitation Japan paper, circa 1920. 150x126 mm; 6x5 inches, full margins. A very good, evenly-printed and richly-inked impression of this extremely scarce print, with crisp plate edges. Known primarily for his modernist sculptures of female heads and nudes, Nadelman (1882-1946) was a Polish born artist who spent the last decades of his life in the Riverdale neighborhood of the Bronx. His works display his passions for classical sculpture and European Folk Art, mixed with the cubist influences he gained through his relationships with avant-garde artists like Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso while he was living in Paris from 1904 to 1914.
