Georges Rouault was a 20th century French painter associated with the Fauvist and Expressionist movements. Born in Paris, Rouault studied at the Ecole Des Beaux Arts and met Henri Matisse, Albert Marquet and Charles Camoin, which brought him to Fauvism under the leadership of Matisse. His Expressionist style later in life is attributed to the influence of Vincent van Gogh, and his painting “The Old King” is regarded as his best Expressionist paintings.
He is also known for his series of Clown paintings, “Le Pierrot Sage”, “Auguste”, and “Two Clowns”, painted in 1935.
