Gaston HOFFMANN 1883-1977

is one of the most surprising painters of his generation.
From symbolism to classical portraiture, as good a colorist as he was a technician, he was also a poster artist, caricaturist and collaborated with ceramist Daum in Nancy.

The artist entitled his painting "The King". This work is very typical of Gaston Hoffmann. The bright colors, the butcher's look and posture, and the tragi-comic quality of the work.
