Alice Huertas Retrospective 2

 

 

 

We are all familiar with the art of Alice Huertas, who specialized in cancan illustrations. I've always been a big fan of her work.  A number of her artworks found their way into prints that are commonly seen here and elsewhere.  She also drew or painted originals that differ from the prints and that are not commonly seen.  Over the two weeks or so I'll post some of the latter artworks I have come across.

This one is from:

I was curious about the artist, but I haven't been able to find a biographical sketch anywhere.  I think the artworks date mostly from the 1950s. 

Here are links to collections at Tumblr and here:
