Young Boy with a Cap by Moïse Kisling, 1925

Step into 1925 Paris with this dapper young boy, sporting a checkered cap and a bright red scarf that contrasts beautifully with his blue shirt. Painted by Moïse Kisling, a key figure of the 'School of Paris,' the subject features large, almond-shaped eyes and a long neck, a style heavily influenced by his close friend Amedeo Modigliani. Known as the 'Prince of Montparnasse' for his generosity and wild parties, Kisling here shows a softer side, freezing a moment of quiet, slightly melancholic childhood charm.
