Chaïm Soutine's contemporaries

Old Woman, by Chaïm Soutine, c. 1923–24
Abraham Walkowitz
The image shows a wooden stool with a semi-circular seat on a light beige background. The stool has four slim legs and a primarily brown color.
The Repast of the Lion, by Henri Rousseau, ca. 1907
This is a drawing of a furniture design with detailed measurements and decorative elements. The drawing depicts a piece of furniture with a combination of drawers and a cabinet, shown from the front and the side. Specific measurements are provided for various parts of the furniture, such as the width, height, and depth. The design features include a decorative carving in relief on the front panel, a detailed cross-section of the knob, and ornamental patterns on the side. The drawing is technical in nature, likely intended for crafting or woodworking purposes, emphasizing the detailed aspects needed for construction.
Dancing Sailors, by Charles Demuth, 1917
Wrestlers in a Circus, by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, 1909
This is a painting of stylized figures within an ornate frame. The artwork features two central figures that are reminiscent of a traditional religious iconography but rendered in a simplified and almost cartoonish form. The larger figure is draped in blue with red accents, while a smaller figure is held in one hand, enrobed in red. The background is decorated with a variety of patterns including an arch-like structure with wavy designs and lines, all outlining the central figures. The outer sections feature floral patterns with bold, contrasting colors of red, black, and teal. The use of thick outlines and vivid colors suggests a playful and decorative approach to the portrayal of the figures, drawing inspiration possibly from folk art traditions.
