EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Henri Rousseau's famous painting, "Hungry Lion". Created by the renowned artist, also known as Le Douanier Rousseau, this masterpiece captures the essence of a hungry lion in all its glory. Painted in the 20th century using oil on canvas, the artwork measures an impressive 2.00 x 3.00 meters and is housed at the Museum of Fine Arts in Bale. Rousseau's unique style shines through in this piece, characterized by his naivety and bold use of color. The scene depicts a tawny lion with piercing eyes and bared teeth, poised to attack its prey—an antelope that stands no chance against its carnivorous predator. The composition beautifully portrays nature's raw power and primal instincts. The play between light and shadow adds depth to the painting, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of dusk in a dense forest. As you gaze upon this remarkable work of art, you can almost feel the hunger emanating from the lion's fierce expression. It serves as a reminder of both the beauty and brutality found within our natural world. Henri Rousseau's "Hungry Lion" continues to captivate viewers with its striking imagery and timeless appeal. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Rousseau's genius without having to visit Basel or travel back in time—a testament to his enduring legacy as one of France's most celebrated painters.
