Masquerade Gold Guitarist 1926

"Masquerade Gold Guitarist" is a 1926 painting by Russian-French artist Ossip Zadkine. The artwork depicts a group of figures in a room, with a focus on a guitarist wearing a mask and playing a bright yellow instrument. The painting is known for its cubist influence, with its angular forms, fragmented figures, and overlapping planes. The use of bold colours and simplified forms gives the scene a sense of energy and movement, which is a hallmark of Zadkine's work. It is also one of his notable creations that explored the themes of music and theater.
