Housed in an old richly decorated giltwood and gesso frame.Note: Serge Mendjisky, born in 1929, studied at the Beaux Arts in Paris, in the footsteps of his father Maurice Mendjisky, painter of the School of Paris. In 1949, he moved to Nice. He receives Picasso’s encouragement whom he knows through his father. The artist is not confined to painting, but also explores many other techniques such as sculpture, collage, and photography. In the 1960s, his painting is influenced by Van Gogh and Cezanne, and he becomes interested in divisionism. In the late 1980s, he devoted himself to sculpture. This exploration allows him to establish compositions punctuated by volumes, and colors.
