Jean Cocteau

Jean Cocteau is one of the most famous artists of the 20th century. Poet, novelist, playwright, filmmaker, painter and sculptor, he was always ahead of fashions and only obeyed his creative impulse. Nothing escaped him and he let his creativity have no boundaries, often going against the tide. Resolutely modern, his unique style was immediately recognizable. Jean Cocteau  (1889-1963) Read less
