French-German painter S. Balthus was widely embraced as a prodigy. He shocked the Parisian art world in 1934 with his dreamy, sensual, neo-classical portraits of nymphets at a time when surrealism and abstraction were de rigueur. As a provocateur, Balthus was often scorned. In response to critics of his realist style, Balthus said. The real is not what you think you see. One can be a realist of the unreal and a figurative painter of the invisible. His Erotic, poetic paintings live on as examples of the best figurative work of the modern era.
