From the Douanier Rousseau to Séraphine: The Great Naive Masters

Musée Maillol, Paris

NOW CLOSED

Two Lions on the Look-out in the Jungle (1909–10), Henri Rousseau. Private collection

This broad survey of ‘naive’ artists includes celebrated painters such as Henri ‘Le Douanier’ Rousseau and Séraphine Louis, whom the critic Wilhelm Uhde dubbed ‘modern primitives’ for their untutored and idiosyncratic paintings, as well as work by less well-known artists such as Camille Bombois and Dominique Peyronnet.
