PARIS MARCHÉ AUX PUCES (Paris Flea Market) is a 1927 ink by Paul Gangolf, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching depicts a bustling city scene, with a crowd of people gathered in the foreground. The scene is set against a backdrop of buildings, with a prominent sign reading "Vente aux Puces" (Flea Market Sale) in the center. The artist's use of bold lines and shading creates a sense of energy and activity, drawing the viewer's eye through the composition. In the midst of the crowd, a man is shown holding a large basket, while another figure is seen pushing a cart. The level of detail in the etching is impressive, with intricate textures and patterns visible on the clothing and buildings. The artist's skillful use of etching techniques brings this vibrant city scene to life. For more works by this artist, explore the collection of Gangolf, Paul.
