Who is that mysterious coloured woman lying on the desert and dreaming under the moonlight? What is about to do the greedy feline that is leaning on the woman? La bohémienne endormie" ("the sleeping gypsy") is one of the most beautiful paintings of the custom officer and artist Henri Rousseau (1844-1910).
Considered during his life as an “amateur artist” by the art critics, Rousseau is now acclaimed as one of the forerunners of simplicity in modern art.
Picasso, Georges Braque, Kandinsky and Apollinaire discovered this brilliant genius, they praised his artistic vision and the determination of his style, that breaks the reality in a poetic way
This Rousseau’s masterpiece was made three years before his death and it is currently exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
