Alexandre Sascha Garbell (1903-1970) - Cheval cabré

Alexandre Sascha GARBELL (1903-1970) – "Riding Horse"

Expressionism of the movement: A masterful piece from the School of Paris

THE WORK: A flash on paper
In this watercolor, Alexandre Garbell (also known as Sascha) transcends the classical subject of the horse, keeping only its pure energy. The artist uses the liveliness of the line and the transparency of the water to suggest the power of a horse rearing up.
Here, the white of the paper is not a void, but a light source that sculpts the animal’s anatomy. It is a nerve-racking, modern work, where every brushstroke seems laid down with poetic urgency. It is Garbell’s visual signature: a figuration that leans toward lyrical abstraction.
WHY IS THIS WORK A STRATEGIC CHOICE?

Museum Signature: Garbell is a pillar of the Second School of Paris. His works are in the collections of the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris and the Centre Pompidou.

Preferred Theme: The horse is a universally collected subject. Treated by Garbell, it takes on a highly sought-after "Modern Art" dimension.

Collection Format: Its dimensions (27 x 21 cm) allow an elegant framing with a wide mat, ideal for a private study or a collection of master drawings.

Authenticity Guaranteed: Signed by the artist’s hand at the bottom right, offering perfect traceability.

Garbell is the ideal artist for those seeking to combine the historical quality of the School of Paris with a dynamic aesthetic. This "Riding Horse" is a "fluid" work on the market: its subject and technique attract both French and international collectors. It is a piece of character that will instantly enhance a 20th-century art collection."
