Seated Figure No.5 1945

"Seated Figure No. 5" (1945) by Pierre Courtin (1921- ) is a striking black and white drawing that exemplifies the artist's Cubist approach to figurative art. Courtin simplifies the human form into geometric shapes, creating a powerful and abstract portrayal of a seated figure. The use of hatching and cross-hatching adds depth and texture to the composition, drawing attention to the artist's meticulous detail and the interplay of light and shadow. This drawing is a testament to Courtin's exploration of Cubism and its influence on his artistic expression.
