Painting Description
"La Tour Eiffel" ("The Eiffel Tower") is a painting by the French post-impressionist artist Henri Julien Félix Rousseau, commonly known as Henri Rousseau. Created in 1898, this work exemplifies Rousseau's self-taught, naïve style, which is characterized by its dreamlike atmosphere and meticulous detail. The painting depicts the Eiffel Tower, a global cultural icon of France and one of the most recognizable structures in the world, which had been completed just nine years prior to the creation of Rousseau's work.
In "La Tour Eiffel," Rousseau captures the grandeur of the tower, set against a vibrant Parisian landscape. The painting is noted for its bold use of color and the juxtaposition of the industrial iron structure with the natural elements in the scene. Rousseau's unique approach to perspective and proportion gives the painting a whimsical quality that is often associated with his 'naïve' or 'primitive' style.
Henri Rousseau, who was also known as Le Douanier (the customs officer), due to his occupation as a toll collector, was largely self-taught and did not begin painting seriously until his late forties. Despite his lack of formal training, Rousseau's work was eventually recognized for its artistic merit, and he became a celebrated figure in the avant-garde circles of Paris. "La Tour Eiffel" is one of his many works that reflect his deep fascination with the modern and exotic, themes that recur throughout his oeuvre.
The painting is part of Rousseau's broader body of work that includes landscapes, portraits, and jungle scenes, the latter of which he is perhaps best known for, despite never having left France. "La Tour Eiffel" is an important piece that contributes to the understanding of Rousseau's artistic journey and the development of modern art at the turn of the 20th century. It remains a testament to Rousseau's imaginative vision and his ability to transform the everyday into the extraordinary through his art.
