EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures Jules Pascin's masterpiece, "Susanna and the Elders; Susannah et les Vieillards" painted around 1921. This oil on canvas artwork measures 81.3x59.6 cm and is part of a private collection. Pascin's painting depicts the biblical story of Susanna and the elders, showcasing his unique interpretation of this ancient tale. The scene portrays Susanna, a young woman with brown hair, standing on a balcony outdoors during daytime. She is surrounded by several elderly men who are depicted in various postures. The artist skillfully explores themes of nudity, personal cleanliness, and assistance within this early twentieth-century religious context. The composition includes elements such as books from the Book of Daniel, symbolizing the biblical origins of the narrative. Pascin's modern art style shines through in his portrayal of diverse characters from different ethnic backgrounds - African and Caucasian - emphasizing their presence in society at that time. Through his use of color and brushstrokes, Pascin creates an expressive atmosphere that invites viewers to contemplate both the vulnerability and strength portrayed by each figure in this medium group setting. This artwork not only showcases Pascin's artistic prowess but also serves as a reminder of timeless stories that continue to resonate across cultures throughout history.
