But despite the originality of the works they created and the fact that many of the most influential artists and art movements of the latter par ..."

As his work shifted from figurative imagery to luminous fields of colour, his concern expanded to the setting in ..."

It was not until Rousseau was championed by the young avant-garde—Picasso, Delaunay, and Kandinsky, among others—that he came to be recognized at his true worth. One of the most significant of these early admirers was the de ..."
