Jules Pascin

Born in Vidin, Bulgaria, he was raised in Bucharest, Rumania. He attended art schools in Vienna and Munich and traveled to Berlin and Paris. From 1905 to 1929, he worked as a satirical cartoonist for a Munich weekly. From 1914 to 1920, he lived in America and became a U.S. citizen. He traveled extensively in the southern states and portrayed downtrodden segments of society. In 1920, he returned to Paris, and from there, traveled throughout Europe and North Africa. He changed his mediums from watercolor and drawing to oil. Suffering depression and alcoholism, he committed suicide in his studio in Montmartre.
