Paper Dolls, Madrid

Original etching, signed and titled in pencil.

His powerful draughtsmanship marked his early etchings, whose composition and light and dark tonal contrasts showed the influence and understanding of the Old Masters, especially Rembrandt. Paper Dolls (1924) exemplifies what the art historian Jane Lee has called Gross’s ‘tenebrism’: a fondness for the shadows. It would prove an abiding feature of his work.
