Chaim Soutine and Roald Dahl

“ Yes, he did have a face like a Kalmuck - very broad and high cheeked, with a wide coarse nose. This broadness of the cheeks was accentuated by the ears which stood out sharply from the head. And then he had the narrow eyes, the black hair the sullen mouth of a Kalmuck, but the hands - the hands were always a surprise, so small and white like a lady’s, with tiny thin fingers.”
