Mid Century French Gestural Figure Drawing by L. de la Rocha, No. 08
One of a series of minimalist line drawings by L. de la Rocha, each capturing the human figure in elegant, gestural form. These abstract studies emphasize posture, movement, and restraint—executed in fluid, delicate lines on toned paper.
Framed in natural wood with a white mat, the drawing is signed in the lower corner. The artist is believed to be a French illustrator or printmaker, associated with the Parisian address ‘45, Rue Victor Massé, Paris.’ Located in Montmartre, this area was a vital hub for artists during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, fostering a vibrant and influential art scene at the heart of modern Paris.
Montmartre was home to pioneering figures like Picasso, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Modigliani, who flourished in its bohemian atmosphere. Its cafés, studios, and cabarets served as a meeting ground for creatives, shaping the course of modern art history.
