Michel Adlen - Landscape of Chaufour, France

This modernist landscape is painted in stylised, blocky strokes of pure colour, evoking the feeling of sunset by the river.

Michel Adlen was a Ukranian artist who lived in Paris during the 1920s, where he was influenced by cubism. This can be sensed through the style of the buildings in this work.

A number of his engravings were purchased during his lifetime by museums in Moscow and Kiev.
