AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This is a drawing by Leo Gestel in which a man is depicted. It could be a self-portrait. Leendert (Leo) Gestel (Woerden, November 22, 1881 – Hilversum, November 26, 1941) was a Dutch painter, draftsman and book-bindings designer, and is regarded as one of the most important innovators of modern art in the Netherlands.
Gestel initially developed a luminist style, which he applied in his early landscapes around Woerden. In the following years he experimented with various modern movements, including Cubism, Expressionism and Fauvism. His work is characterized by a strong sensitivity to color, light and composition. Through this ongoing artistic development, Gestel took a prominent place within the Dutch avant-garde of the first half of the twentieth century. His oeuvre is now represented in numerous Dutch and international museum collections.
