About the Item
Signed lower right by the artist
Note:
Despiau was a highly regarded sculptor. In his youth, he worked in the studio of Auguste Rodin, who greatly influenced his mature style. His major focus was portraying the female nude figure. His drawings have a highly developed style that depicts the figure gracefully without excessive detail.
A similar drawing is in the collection of the Albright Knox Museum.
A bronze entitled “Assia, sans bras” is a similar pose and appears to be the same model.

- Reclining Female NudeBy Emil GansoLocated in Fairlawn, OHReclining Female Nude Charcoal on paper, c. 1933 Signed lower right (see photo) Provenance: Weyhe Gallery, New York (Ganso's dealer 1925-1941) Joseph Mark Erdelac, Cleveland, noted collector who had a large collection of Ganso works Ganso was born in Germany in 1895. At age 14, he apprenticed to a baker and then worked his way to America when he was 17. He worked in bakeries in Scranton, Pennsylvania; and Cincinnati and Akron, Ohio. By 1916, Ganso out of a job, and was living the life of a bohemian in New York City, sometimes on less than 30 cents a week.1 In 1921, Ganso painted a realistic nude on a bedsheet, and was forced by the police to remove it from an exhibition. The bedsheet with the painting was later stolen. He soon had a job baking again at $140 a month, and with time to spare for painting and study. Ganso quit baking in 1925 when a New York dealer gave him financial backing of $50 a week. Ganso prospered from his art after that. His work is in over 15 American museums, and the Print Club of Cleveland awarded him a $500 purchase prize for a wood engraving. A versatile artist, he painted a variety of subjects.
