"View of the Banks of the Oise" is a seminal landscape painting by French Post-Impressionist artist Henri Julien Rousseau. Created in 1905, this artwork depicts a serene landscape along the Oise River in France.

Rousseau, often known as "Le Douanier" Rousseau (customs officer), was largely self-taught is renowned for his naivist style, a genre characterised by simple, unaffected portrayals of subjects. Despite never visiting jungles or exotic locations, he was famously known for his dreamlike, jungle scenes.

In sharp contrast to the exotic theme, 'View of Banks of Oise' presents a tranquil and naturalistic view of rural France. The painting is set in subdued daylight, featuring lush greenery and a serene river. Through a blend of realistic and dream-like features, Rousseau effectively captures the peaceful ambiance of the French countryside.

Rousseau’s signature naivist style is evident in his detailed and meticulous rendering of the foliage and the river, which he has managed to infuse with vibrancy and life. Despite improvement from earlier landscapes, this work exhibits flatness and lack of perspective, a distinct quality found in much of Rousseau's work that was often criticised during his lifetime but later celebrated.

Today, "View of the Banks of the Oise" is part of a private collection, embodying Rousseau's unique place in art history and his profound influence on the Symbolist and Surrealist movements.
