1914
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Au Maroc is a 1914 by Auguste Lepère, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The image features three sketches of a man standing in front of a building, each with a distinct style. The man is depicted wearing a robe and holding a staff, with a building and people in the background. The sketches are rendered in black and white, with varying levels of detail and shading. The sketches appear to be studies for a larger work, with the artist experimenting with different techniques and compositions. The use of black and white creates a sense of contrast and highlights the textures and forms of the subjects. For more information on the artist's use of chiaroscuro, explore the works of Auguste Louis Lepère.
Louis-Auguste Lepère (30 November 1849 – 20 November 1918) was a French painter and etcher. Lepère is also considered a leader in the creative revival of wood engraving in Europe.
