Description

---

Henri Rousseau (1844–1910) is one of the most important
representatives of naive art. His paintings, characterized
by a pronounced exoticism and a childlike awkwardness,
can be understood as avant-garde. From the famous jungle
paintings to numerous portraits and his cityscapes, one can
discover Rousseau’s work, which remains true to his simple but
imaginative style.
