Artists in conversation
Marino Marini
Italian · b. 1901
As the creator of this very portfolio, Marini's broader printmaking practice shares the same expressive figurative language, combining etching and aquatint techniques to capture dynamic human forms in motion with vivid color and gestural energy.
Georges Rouault
French · b. 1871
Rouault created richly colored etchings and aquatints featuring circus performers and acrobatic figures, sharing the same expressive figurative approach and the combination of printmaking techniques with bold color that defines this juggler composition.
Marc Chagall
Russian French · b. 1887
Chagall frequently depicted acrobats and circus performers in his color etchings and aquatints on Arches paper, bringing the same lyrical figurative dynamism and vibrant chromatic warmth seen in Marini's portrayal of jugglers in motion.
