Chaim Soutine created some of modern art's most potent and expressive portraits. His distinctive style captured the essence, humanity, and emotion of his subjects. This publication accompanies a major exhibition at the Courtauld Gallery, London, focusing on his significant series of portraits depicting cooks, waiters, and bellboys from the 1920s. These works were instrumental in establishing Soutine's reputation as a leading avant-garde painter, often seen as a successor to van Gogh.
