Moussia Toulman (1903–1997) was a painter, art critic and poet. Born in Ukraine, she chose to emigrate to France to refine her artistic training. She settled permanently in Paris in 1929, at a time when it was the world epicenter of the avant-gardes. From her arrival, she actively joined the Société des Salons Indépendants. Her painting style and themes connect her directly with the famous School of Paris. She excelled in varied genres such as classical landscapes and still lifes. Her portraits and nudes are distinguished by great sensitivity and a mastered technique. Beyond her canvas work, she was deeply involved in art criticism. She regularly published articles and also wrote poetry collections. Co-founder of “l'Art Organisation” alongside major figures such as Mane-Katz, she worked actively to forge strong cultural bridges with Israel. This collective notably helped support Israeli creators visiting Paris. Her works have entered several museum collections, notably in Israel. She died in Paris in 1997, leaving the imprint of a cosmopolitan artist.
