Notes: van Dongen was a central member of the Fauvist movement alongside artists such as Henri Matisse, André Derain and Maurice de Vlaminck. This work exhibits the more muted style and smaller scale of the landscapes, inspired by Rembrandt, which formed his earlier output. In 1926, Van Dongen was awarded the Legion d’Honneur, and in the following year the Order of the Crown of Belgium. His works are currently held in the collections of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., among others.
