White-walled shop fronts, spindly trees and anonymous figures populate city scenes that Maurice Utrillo (1883-1955) painted in the early 20th century.
This month, Utrillo, Urban Solitude opens at Galerie Alexis Pentcheff in Marseille. The show (September 22-November 4) features 39 works, all from private collections, and presents the artist as a leading figure of the École de Paris.
