Publisher's Synopsis

  • Pascin is an importan but often overlooked figure in the history of modern painting.
  • Will appeal to Jewish American readers interested in the history of Jewish figures in early 20th Century art movements.
  • Pascin was a notorious bohemian, and a key figure in the Montparnasse artistic community of the early 20th century.
  • Ernest Hemingway's chapter titled "With Pascin At the Dôme", in A Moveable Feast, recounted a night in 1923 when he had stopped off at Le Dôme and met Pascin escorted by two models. Hemingway's portrayal of the evening is considered one of the defining images of Montparnasse at the time.
  • Pascin is Joann Sfar's most literary and personal comics project.
  • Will feature an introduction by Craig Thompson one of the best known North American cartoonists.
