About School Boy in Blue

“School Boy in Blue” is a portrait created by Chaim Soutine in 1937 in France. This artwork is part of a private collection and depicts a young schoolboy adorned in a blue coat.

The artwork exhibits Soutine’s distinctive expressionistic style, characterized by vigorous and dynamic brushstrokes. The portrait captures a young boy with exaggerated features, particularly noticeable in the large ears and elongated face. He stands slightly slouched, with his gaze directed towards the left, evoking a sense of introspection or melancholy. The background is abstract, comprised of swirling, muted colors that blend seamlessly with the blue hues of the boy’s coat, creating an immersive and emotive atmosphere. The combination of colors and the fluidity of brushstrokes imbue the artwork with a sense of movement and emotional depth, hallmark traits of Soutine’s artistic endeavors.
