Henri Rousseau

Henri Rousseau

Henri Rousseau, a self-taught painter, lived a double life as a Parisian toll collector. Yet, within his modest apartment, he conjured lush jungles and exotic scenes, all without ever leaving France. This juxtaposition – the mundane versus the fantastical – defines Rousseau's unique appeal. He was a true original, and entirely unburdened by academic convention. Rousseau's paintings, often categorised as naïve art or primitivism, possess a dreamlike quality. His meticulous attention to detail, combined with a flattened perspective and vibrant colours, creates a world both familiar and utterly strange. He strived to capture the essence of nature, not through faithful representation, but through an intensely personal and imaginative lens. Works like 'Landscape with Bridge' and 'Carnival Evening' showcase his distinctive style, blending realism with a touch of the surreal. Though initially ridiculed by critics, Rousseau's work has since been recognised for its visionary power. His influence can be seen in the work of Surrealists and other modern masters. Today, his paintings offer a refreshing escape from the everyday, inviting us to embrace the beauty and wonder of the natural world, as seen through the eyes of a true artistic innocent. Owning a Rousseau print is owning a piece of pure, unadulterated imagination.
