Squelette 1925 - 1927

"Squelette" (1925-1927) by Georges Rouault is a powerful and haunting print that exemplifies his signature style, characterized by thick black outlines and vibrant color. This piece depicts a skeletal figure in a somber pose, capturing the artist's exploration of mortality and the fragility of human existence. Rouault's use of dark tones and dramatic contrasts create a sense of foreboding, reflecting the anxieties of the post-World War I era. This artwork is a testament to Rouault's enduring legacy as a major figure in Expressionism and a poignant reminder of the human condition.
