The Anglers, c. 1908-09
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Henri J. F. Rousseau, also known as Le Douanier. This 46x55 cm masterpiece can be found at the Musee de l'Orangerie in Paris, France. The painting depicts a serene scene of two fishermen engrossed in their angling pursuits along the bank of a tranquil sea. The naive style employed by Rousseau adds an element of charm and simplicity to the composition. However, what makes this artwork truly intriguing is the unexpected presence of a biplane soaring through the sky above the fishermen. This aircraft belongs to none other than Wilbur Wright himself, one of the pioneers of aviation during that era. Rousseau's inclusion of this modern invention amidst such idyllic scenery creates an interesting juxtaposition between traditional fishing practices and technological advancements. It serves as a reminder that progress continues to shape our world even in seemingly untouched landscapes. Beyond its artistic value, "The Anglers" offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century life with its depiction of houses nestled near factories emitting smoke from chimneys nearby. It captures both natural beauty and human intervention within one frame. This particular print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate every intricate detail without any distractions or frames obstructing our view. It is undoubtedly an excellent addition for art enthusiasts seeking to bring timeless beauty into their homes or collections while honoring Rousseau's legacy as one of history's most celebrated artists.
