Georges (1871) Rouault Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, Draft draughtsman, b. 1871 - d. 1958

Artist Georges Rouault, born in Paris in 1871, studied alongside famous artists like Henri Matisse and Albert Marquet, in classes taught at the École des Beaux-Arts under Symbolist painter Gustave Moreau. A large portion of painter Georges Rouault's work focuses on portraits, religious scenes, and still lifes. Influenced by the artist's strong faith as a Roman Catholic, many Georges Rouault figural paintings for sale feature either Jesus or the immorality of the Parisian court. 

Artist Georges Rouault underwent several artistic shifts throughout his career, the first being a move away from academic styles in favor of a combination of Expressionism and Fauvism. The second stylistic change began when Rouault started using oil more than watercolor, choosing to paint in thick layers, with colors and lines that echoed stained glass. Discover new artists by browsing the many evocative figural paintings for sale online and at auction.

Dorival & I. Rouault, 'Rouault, L'oeuvre peint, vol. I', Monte Carlo, 1988, no.375  Note:  this early work demonstrates the artist's development of his unique style, imbuing the landscape with a mystical, almost religious feeling through his expressive handling of the watercolour and deep use of blue. Depicting a lone figure in a landscape with two birds sweeping through the sky, Rouault acknowledges the influence of Van Gogh on his work, in particular his 'Wheatfield with Crows', 1890 (Van Gogh Museum). This work is just one of the sixteen landscapes the artist painted between 1902 and 1909.  1905 was an important year for Rouault, exhibiting alongside his contemporaries Henri Matisse, Charles Camoin and Henri Manguin at the Salon d'Automne in Paris, where this group of artists was first called the Fauves. Rouault's works from 1905-06 are often seen as a climax of his early work in their expressive quality, paving the way to his almost iconographic later style. This would be highly influential on younger artists, in particular in Germany, in its liberation of colour and form and its transcendental qualities.
