Additional Information

Artist: Jean Cocteau (1889-1963)

Born Maisons-Laffitte in 1889, Jean Cocteau was a French writer and playwright, but carried out a multifaceted activity, devoting himself to poetry and novels, theater and cinema, painting and drawing, illustrating many of his books. In his copious production there are traces of all the avant-garde movements, which he attempted more as an experimenter than as a true and convinced adherent. He followed the French cinematic avant-garde movement with curiosity and contributed to the notoriety of the second avant-garde. He was one of the liveliest and most discussed personalities in contemporary literature, a member of the Académie Française since 1955. His versatility, originality and enormous expressive capacity brought him international acclaim.
