Brassaï Sitting nude
sold to a private collection (Hungary)
Description
Brassai was an acknowledged figure in the 1930s for the Parisian art world as artist, photographer and writer aswell. During the II. World War in the occupied Paris he was working for Picasso, who claimed Brassai’s drawings are his real art. Although he thereafter decided to do photography as an artist, he could not take photos in the city during the German occupation, so he created drawings again. Coffee houses, brothels, dark streets inspired him. This sensual drawing was created in this period.
