Henri Rousseau’s House on the Outskirts of Paris captures the quiet charm of suburban life through the lens of his distinctive Naïve art style. Painted with simplified forms, muted tones and flat perspective, the scene shows a modest house nestled among bare trees, with hints of rural calm just beyond the city. The composition is peaceful and structured, evoking both stillness and the gentle rhythm of everyday life.

This suburban landscape print brings understated beauty to interiors that value simplicity and warmth. Perfect for bedrooms, studies or gallery walls with a vintage or rustic touch, it offers a glimpse of early modern Paris as seen through Rousseau’s poetic imagination. A lovely choice for fans of quiet architecture, nature scenes and the timeless appeal of Naïve art.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.

Henri Rousseau

Henri Rousseau

Henri Rousseau was a self-taught French painter best known for his vivid, dreamlike jungle scenes. Lacking formal training, his work was marked by a naïve, or primitive, style that defied the conventions of academic art. Despite early ridicule from critics and the art establishment, Rousseau was admired by avant-garde artists like Picasso, Léger, Jean Hugo, and the Surrealists, who recognized the bold imagination behind his work.

Nicknamed Le Douanier (“the Customs Officer”) due to his job on the outskirts of Paris, Rousseau only began painting seriously at age 40 and retired nine years later to pursue art full time. Though he never left France, his exotic landscapes—lush with oversized foliage and wild animals—were inspired by visits to botanical gardens, illustrated books, and stories from soldiers who had served abroad.

Rousseau believed himself to be a great realist, proudly comparing himself to Picasso. He also pioneered the "portrait landscape" genre, blending figures into rich natural backdrops. Once mocked, Rousseau is now celebrated as a visionary outsider whose work continues to inspire, including references in modern pop culture such as the film Madagascar.
