	Georges Rouault, original prints, lithographs, etchings, aquatints
		Georges Rouault was born in a cellar in 1871 (during the Paris Commune), and these dramatic circumstances probably forever affected his view of the world “I think the massacres, the flames, the terror that surrounded my birth imprinted upon my mind and eyes their fiery and fleeting substance, “he wrote to Suarès in 1913.
		Aged 14, Rouault was apprentice in a stained-glass workshop ; shortly afterwards, the adolescent boy entered a state of moral crisis, during which his conversion occurred.
		In Paris in the 1910s, Rouault painted Christ’s death and passion as well as whores, circus acrobats and clowns ; his look on human decadence is at time benevolent, at time censorious, as he portrays beings void of all spiritual content.
