Jules Pascin, born Julius Mordecai Pincas, was a Bulgarian-born American painter and draftsman. He studied art in Vienna, Munich, and Paris, where he settled in 1905.
Pascin became known for his portraits and nudes, which often featured elongated figures and fluid lines. He was also noted for his use of watercolors and his depictions of Parisian nightlife, cafes, and brothels. His work was influenced by the Fauvists and the German Expressionists.
Pascin was a member of the Montparnasse artistic community in Paris, and he was friends with many of the leading artists and writers of the day, including Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Ernest Hemingway. He was married twice, but his personal life was marked by numerous affairs and a struggle with alcoholism.
His work is held in many major collections, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Art Institute of Chicago.
