Balthus similarly depicted dreamlike states and feminine figures with a modernist sensibility, blending surreal atmosphere with classical figurative composition in works that evoke mystery and interior reverie.

Marie Laurencin
French · b. 1883

Laurencin created ethereal, softly rendered feminine figures suffused with a dreamy poetic quality, sharing Foujita's delicate modernist approach to beauty and graceful female subjects in a similarly lyrical visual language.

Paul Delvaux
Belgian · b. 1897

Delvaux consistently explored dreamlike and surreal imagery centered on feminine beauty and quiet reverie, creating works with a mysterious atmospheric mood that closely parallels the themes and surreal sensibility of this Foujita lithograph.
