LEOPOLD STARKMANN - Lot 99
LEOPOLD STARKMANN Painting a picture in his studio, 1960s. Photo by Lucien Petit-Jean, vintage silver print, stamped by the photographer, captioned (with a dated label) and annotated on the back. 17.3 x 23 cm. Note: This photograph from the 1960s shows Léopold Starkmann in his studio, captured hard at work in front of a canvas he was painting. Taken by Lucien Petit-Jean, it follows in the tradition of portraits of artists at work, which serve as valuable testimonies to the artistic creation process and the intimate world of painters. The image highlights the artist’s creative process and the studio environment, the central setting for the development of the artwork. Captioned and dated on the reverse, this print is a fascinating document on Léopold Starkmann’s career and on postwar artistic life, while also illustrating the attentive gaze that photographers cast upon artists in their creative settings.
