Soutine (Chaim Soutine)
Image Posted on Updated on
“My paintings are a heap of shit, but better than Modigliani, Marc Chagall, and Krémènge”
We like the paintings of Soutine
-because he is a less well-known
-his images are a little crooked, though distinct and recognizable
-the use of bold and deep color
-and he is buried in Paris (Montparnasse Cemetery)

The fountain consists of a semi-circular basin, dominated by the stone statue of Saint-Denis holding his head in his hands. According to legend, it is at this holy place where he washed his head after decapitation in 280. Thereafter he continued on his way – head under his arm, to (a location to become) the crypt of the Saint-Denis basilica , where he was buried
