About the artist
Anne-Elise Schwartz was born 15 July 1948 in New York to Joseph-Robert Schwartz (changed to Sinclair in 1949) and Micheline Nanette Rosenberg. Via her mother she is the maternal granddaughter of Paul Rosenberg one of France’s and later New York’s biggest art dealers. Her grandfather Paul Rosenberg as well as dealing art, owned a major private collection of noted classical, impressionist and post-impressionist works. He lost many of these paintings after fleeing France for New York in 1940 with her parents, but managed to retain a number of works which he had distributed on noting the growing threat of war in the late 1930s.
As the sole heir to her parents’ estate, after the death of her mother Micheline in 2007, Sinclair donated a 1918 Picasso painting of her grandmother and mother painted for Paul Rosenberg, to the Picasso Museum in Paris.
As an original signed work please expect marks to the canvas, splashes of paint, textures and inconsistencies of media. Our opinion of this composition is that it is in good condition, fresh and vibrant colours with raised paint elements.
