Henri Julien Rousseau was born in Laval in the Loire Valley, France o n May 21st, 1844 in Laval, France and he d ied, September 2, 1910 in Paris, France. Rousseau was almost entirely self-taught, although he admitted to having received some “advice” from Félix Auguste Clément and Jean-Léon Gérôme, a pair of painters from the Academic style. For the most part, though, his artwork came all from his own self-training. He painted nature scenes, as well as developing a particular take on the portrait landscape , in which he would paint a particular scene, then place a person in the foreground. His style lacked some of the polished technique of other artists of the time, leading to him being labeled as a “naïve” painter and often disdained by critics.
