Jean Cocteau (1889–1963) was a French poet, playwright, novelist, filmmaker, and visual artist who became one of the most influential cultural figures of the 20th century. Known for his surrealist and avant-garde style, Cocteau's work spanned various forms of art, making him a versatile and multifaceted creator.
Cocteau was deeply embedded in the Parisian avant-garde scene and associated with leading figures such as Pablo Picasso, Marcel Proust, and Igor Stravinsky. His artistic output ranged from poetry, with early collections like Le Cap de Bonne-Espérance (1919), to plays like Orphée (1926), where he explored the mythical and the mystical. He also collaborated with ballet impresario Serge Diaghilev on Parade (1917), a groundbreaking work combining music by Erik Satie and costumes by Picasso.
Cocteau’s visual art, often incorporating whimsical and dreamlike elements, is characterized by fluid line drawings and a surreal aesthetic.
