Henri Rousseau, Jungle in Paris

From november 3 2005 to february 5 2006 |

|
 |
The exhibition presents a large series of works done between 1905 and 1910 by "douanier" Rousseau, his majestic "Famished lion throwing himself on an antilope", as well as the "Tiger in a tropical storm", his first jungle painting. These paintings are placed in the context of his other works, and we thus have a surprising group of allegoric paintings, landscapes of Paris and its surroundings, and a group of extraordinary portraits. |
