- Exposition LÉVY-DHURMER, Bruxelles, Galerie des Artistes Français, 20décembre 1927-3janvier 1928, sous le numéro31. - Étiquette d"exposition au dos. Le sikhisme est l"une des quatre religions de l"Inde fondée par Nanak (1469-1538) au Pendjab. Bibliographie
Reproduit au catalogue de l"exposition citée ci-dessus, à la fin de l"introduction de Camille Mauclair sous le titre "Deux profils d"hindous". Il existe une huile sur toile du même sujet offerte par Monsieur et Madame ZAGOROWKI, en 1976, au musée Paul Valéry à Sète. Ce peintre français, né à Alger, commença sa carrière en peignant sur faïence dans la manufacture de Clément Massier. Ses nombreux voyages le conduisirent à sillonner le monde oriental du Maroc aux Indes, et les souvenirs qu"il en ramena lui furent source d"inspiration. C"est en tant que pastelliste qu"il excella trouvant dans cet art le moyen d"exprimer toute sa sensibilité et sa douceur. Dessinateur et coloriste hors-pair, ce peintre nous a laissé une vision unique de l"Orient, s"attachant à la lumière et aux sentiments. Notre tableau illustre magnifiquement l"art de Lévy-Dhurmer. Il ose le jaune éclatant, couleur de l"Inde, et nous présente des personnages empreints de noblesse. This French painter, was born in Algiers. He began his career painting on faience in the manufacture of Clement Massier. He travelled a lot throughout the Eastern world from Morocco to India, and he brought back images and souvenirs that have been his source of inspiration. He excelled in his art as a pastellist finding a way to express his sensitivity and gentleness. This painter who excelled in the art of drawing and coloring has left us a unique vision of the Eastern world. Our painting “The two sikhs” is a very fine illustration of Levy Dhurmers" work, with beautiful and daring use of a bright yellow, and nobleness of his characters.
