Emile Lejeune
Emile Lejeune was a painter from Geneva. He moved to Paris and opened up his studio at 6 rue Huyghens in Montparnasse, where a range of events was held at including, concerts by the group known as Les Six, including an exhibition of African art organized by Paul Guillaume, and poetry readings, particularly by Apollinaire and Cocteau. After visiting Provence, Emile Lejeune finally decided, in 1922, to move to Cagnes with his family. Both Soutine’s portraits of Lejeune date from this period, either before Lejeune left Paris, or just after he had moved. He was influenced by artists like Amedeo Modigliani and Claude Monet.
