Georges Rouault Art Prints
Georges Henri Rouault (1871-1958) was a Paris-born artist best known for
his painting, printmaking, and drafting. Apprenticed at the age of 14 as a
glass painter, which he continued for the next five years, and some believe
that this early training was responsible for his future painting style
consisting often of heavy black lines and vivid, glowing colors, much in the
style of leaded glass. Georges Rouault became one of the best known modern
artists to treat religious subjects, focusing on the New Testament and the
life and Passion of Christ.
Meeting Henri Matisse early on, Rouault was introduced to Fauvism, of which
Matisse is considered to have been the leader. He later moved on to
Expressionism. He painted throughout his life, starting in 1907 with a series
interpreted to have been critical of the social and moral climate of the time.
