(1891 Lódz/Polen/Russisches Kaiserreich - 1944 wahrscheinlich im KZ Auschwitz) Hafenszene in der Bretagne mit Frauen am Kai Expressiv-realistisch gemaltes Werk Epsteins, der durch verschiedene Stile der Moderne - u. a. Postimpressionismus, Paul Gauguin und Kubismus - inspiriert wurde. Epstein studierte ab 1910 an der Münchener Akademie, ab 1912 in Paris an der Académie de la Grande Chaumière. Nach 1918 schloss sich Epstein der Avantgarde-Künstlerkolonie von La Ruche im Quartier Montparnasse an, gehörte zum Freundeskreis von Modigliani, Soutine, Chagall, Utrillo etc.; 1921-1931 nahm Epstein öfters an den bedeutendsten Kunstausstellungen teil - dem Salon d"Automne, Salon des Indépendants und Salon des Tuilleries. Zwischen 1929 und 1931 besuchte er die Bretagne, wo er in Quiberon und Concarneau insbesondere die Fischer und ihre Umgebung sowie die Häfen malte.
