작품 상세

Artist: JACQUES VILLON (1875-1963) Size: 31 x 46 1/2 in./78.8 x 118.2 cm Although listed in his catalogue raisonné, barely anything is known about this curious film poster by Villon in which a young girl is shown playing on the train tracks while a frenetically-rendered rail worker pulls at the switch bar. One will note the presence of the name Montcorbier above that of Villon -- Jacques Villon's real name was Gaston Emile Duchamp. In 1895, he changed it to Jacques Villon in honor of the poet François Villon, whose real surname was Montcorbier. Rare!
