If your really interested in Soutine, you have to go to The Barnes Foundation, in Philadelphia, and view 21 of the best Soutine you’ll ever see. Albert Barnes put Soutine on the map in a 1922 visit to Paris where Barnes bought 50 of the artists paintings. Many of Soutine’s painting in The USA were once owned by Barnes but he sold some of them off before his death in 1951.
am sorry but i must comment. soutine did not paint his works at one day. it took weeks and weeks, but he was working on few at a same time. that is a fact. he was very, very thinking painter, and you have people who saw him painting, who said this, that i just did. also, he and Modigliani, were not alcoholics. and last, please learn what is good portrait, elements of good portratit. it is crucial to explain to people. soutine is one of best artists in history. respect that.
It’s amazing how many educated individuals have no idea who Soutine was. His paintings are so powerfully full of Soutine soul, every one must have took something out of him (they say he would be exausted after completing a work). He may have been the best post-impressionist artist in Paris in the 20’s, yet few know of him....wired.
0.23 , 4.38 show painting one way and entire artist talk shows painting the opposite.... P A M catalogue shows painting in the former. Which is correct?
Hi Steve. That's a keen observation. It seems like whoever made this video back in 2011 flipped the inserted image for some reason. The perspective is correct as you see it with Michael Brophy is on screen with the painting.
i was 8 years old when i first saw this painting... i was on a field trip with my 3rd grade class from david hill school in hillsboro, oregon. the piece confused, startled, yet profoundly influenced me. the person speaking about this painting is doing a very mediocre job explaining the painting and the artist. perhaps he feels he is well-intentioned.. perhaps...though for me : he is boring. the painting and the artist deserve better.
They can’t relate to Soutaine’s style of painting because they have never suffered like he had for his art. Like this gent, they give you an over-analytical view which can never be used to express his art.
There are many “art experts” who have no idea what they are talking about. There is story after story about Modigliani and Soutine walking around Paris brothels sloshed out of their gord.

0.23 the painting is back to front
I wonder if Albert C Barnes once owned this???
Just for the record: his first name is pronounced with a guttural H :)
He pronounces his name 'Calm' Soutine? Is this guy freakin' kidding?
