Painting Description
"Tiger in a Tropical Storm (Surprised!)" is a renowned oil-on-canvas painting by French post-impressionist artist Henri Julien Rousseau, commonly known as Le Douanier Rousseau. Completed in 1891, this work is considered one of Rousseau's masterpieces and an iconic example of his unique and self-taught style, which combined a naive manner with the ambition of traditional academic painting. The painting depicts a dramatic scene of a tiger, illuminated by a flash of lightning, crouched and ready to pounce, set against the backdrop of a lush and vibrant jungle during a tropical storm.
Rousseau's work is characterized by its dreamlike atmosphere and the meticulous attention to botanical details, despite the fact that the artist had never left France and drew his inspiration from Parisian botanical gardens, taxidermied animals, and illustrated books. "Tiger in a Tropical Storm (Surprised!)" marks a significant departure from the realistic and historical subjects that dominated the art scene of the time, showcasing Rousseau's fascination with the exotic and untamed aspects of nature.
The painting was initially met with mixed reviews, as critics were unsure how to receive Rousseau's unconventional style. However, it eventually gained recognition and played a pivotal role in establishing Rousseau's reputation as a pioneer of modernism. The artwork is celebrated for its vivid color palette, the sense of movement conveyed by the tiger and the surrounding foliage, and its evocative portrayal of the primal forces of nature.
Today, "Tiger in a Tropical Storm (Surprised!)" is held in the collection of the National Gallery in London and continues to captivate audiences with its raw energy and enchanting naivety, serving as a testament to Rousseau's imaginative power and his influence on subsequent generations of avant-garde artists.
