FRENCH VERSION
Known as the Douanier Rousseau, Henri Rousseau (1844-1910) has long been regarded as the first of the naïve painters. His "scenes portraits", still lifes, Parisian landscapes and imaginary jungles compose a singular work, already admired in his time by Apollinaire, Picasso, or the Delaunay couple. After his death, he enjoyed international fame, largely orchestrated by the merchant Paul Guillaume and the collector Albert Barnes, at the origin of the two most important collections of Rousseau, now preserved in the Musée de l'Orangerie and the Barnes Foundation.
Through a series of essays devoted to the pictorial practices of the painter, his reception and his network, this catalogue illuminates the multiple facets of an artist well aware of his value and attentive to the strategies of diffusion of his work.

Exhibition at the Musée de l'Orangerie from March 25th to July 20th, 2026 .
