Price on Application
Born in Paris in 1871, Georges Rouault was a French artist, whose works included painting and printing. Rouault is associated with both the Fauvist and Expressionist movements in style. He began his working life as an apprentice glass blower, and it is believed that this experience influenced his choice of dark, heavy contouring in later work. He attended evening classes at École des Beaux-Arts, studying fine art under Gustave Moreau.
