Jean Henry Brossat
Apples, Hommage to Rousseau, large, square, naive work on canvas.

1970's

About the Item

Large square French fantasy naive oil on canvas by Jean Henry Brossat. Signed to the front and bearing a title in Russian (?) script to the rear. In a plain baton frame. Brossat's work is very reminiscent of the jungle paintings of Henri Rousseau. Best known for his jungle paintings, Henri Rousseau (1844 – 1910) was very much an outsider in the art world. He was a self-taught artist, and didn’t paint in the traditional academic style of the Salon and French Academy. Rather, his artwork expressed an untrained style, featuring bold colours and flat figures. This style became known as “naïve” and although it was often ridiculed by the artistic establishment, it was later embraced by avant-garde artists such as Pablo Picasso and Robert Delaunay. Brossat's work has been widely exhibited and is included in collections throughout Europe, North America and Asia.
