Theodore Stravinsky
The Horse and the Dancer - Etching by Theodore Stravinsky - 1932

1932

About the Item

The Horse and the Dancer is an original etching realized by Théodore Strawinsky in 1932. Hand signed and dated in pencil on the lower right margin, edition of 15 prints. Very good conditions. It represents a female dancer with a horse in a black & white composition with horizontal lines and shadows in the background. During the 1930s, Strawinsky was influenced by the Russian Ballet and the Cubist compositions realized by Pablo Picasso and by Georges Braque, who was his first master. The figures are classical and monumental; the influence by contemporary Cubism artworks is evident especially in the volumes of the figures. Théodore Strawinsky (St. Petersburg, 1907 – Genève, 1989) was a Russian painter. Son of Igor Strawinsky and Catherine Nossenko, he spent his childhood in Russia. In 1910, his family moved to Swiss and then to France. Théodore began to paint when he was young. In France, the young painter sought, above all, to acquire a rigorous and in-depth technique. In 1927, he exhibited for the first time in Paris. After his first period of activity, he decorated several churches in different countries. Strawinsky's slavic and orthodox origins have been decisive for the development of his artistic personality.
