Bibliography:
Jean KISLING, Kisling 1891–1953, Text by Henri Troyat, Catalogue Raisonné, Volume 2, Published by Jean Kisling, Italy, 1982, no. 80, p. 312
‘Kisling took realist painting to its very highest potential through his desperate need to create. He does not captivate at first glance. He surprises and wins you over by force. Then his enchantments take effect. One never forgets Kisling’s works, for they are as varied as their subjects themselves… He never repeats himself, and each of his works is a new experiment in colour. His love of life, his sensual temperament with a thirst for intensity, and his prodigious health make him the most powerful colourist of the School of Paris.” Florent Fels, *Kisling, Jewish Artists*, Paris, Éditions Le Triangle, 1928, p. 16.
