EDITORS COMMENTS
Leonard Tsuguharu Foujita, the renowned Japanese painter and engraver, is seen in an unexpected light in this photograph. Taken in the 1930s, the image finds Foujita at a bustling Parisian cabaret club, surrounded by friends and engulfed in the hedonistic atmosphere of the era. Dressed in drag, Foujita dons a flamboyant ensemble, complete with a feather boa and a beaming smile. The artist, known for his sensual and provocative works, appears to be fully embracing the camp and playful spirit of the night. The cabaret club, a popular destination for artists, writers, and intellectuals during the 1930s, was a melting pot of jazz music, lively performances, and artistic expression. Foujita, who was known for his connections to the Parisian avant-garde scene, would have felt right at home in this vibrant and eclectic environment. Smoking a cigarette with an air of nonchalant confidence, Foujita seems to be relishing the moment, surrounded by the sights, sounds, and smells of the cabaret. The photograph offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of the artist, revealing a side of Foujita that was not often seen in his formal portraits and paintings. This historical image, captured during a time when gender roles were being challenged and redefined, serves as a reminder of the rich cultural and artistic history of the 1930s. Foujita's presence in this photograph adds an intriguing layer to our understanding of the artist and his place in the artistic landscape of the time.
