From 15 Visages D Enfants, de Durer A Dufy. Published by Daniel Jacomet, Paris France.
By Raoul Dufy, 1877-1953, Aquarelle sur papier blanc.ate signed in the lower right hand corner. This watercolour measures 18.5 x 14 inches. Mint Condition
Raoul Dufy was one of the most popular artists of the first half of the twentieth century. He was also popular with the critics, winning the prize for painting at the 1952 Venice Biennale. He was drawn successively to Impressionism, Fauvism, worked with Braque in the first decade of the century before coming under Cezanne's spell, before finally synthesizing his own personal style in the 1920s. He was one of Ambroise Vollard's stable of artists (along with Renoir, Rouault, Chagall, and many others), and the portrait of Vollarf pictured below suggests that he has captured the Vollard whose grasp always exceeded his reach, a man who strove for perfection without ever feeling that he had achieved it, who commissioned many projects but completed very few.
