About Trees in Collioure (Arbres à Collioure) Andre Derain Fauvism Art Masterpiece Painting
Painted in 1905, Arbres à Collioure represents the pinnacle of Derain's career as well as of the Fauve movement. Its vibrant palette and wildly expressive composition place it among the artist's greatest achievements. Indeed, it is the unique painterly quality of the work which reflects precisely the power and immediacy of the artist's technique; every brushstroke is invigorated by the spirit of that most revolutionary summer of his career, spent with Henri Matisse in Collioure (fig. 1). Matisse had invited Derain to the small coastal town in early July 1905 and they spent the following two months working in close proximity, often painting the same subject (figs. 2 & 3). The sun-drenched atmosphere so typical of southern France had a profound effect on Derain and, shortly after his arrival, he wrote to Maurice de Vlaminck celebrating the light: 'a blond light, a golden hue that suppresses the shadows'. Derain's preoccupation with the light and colour of the Mediterranean freed his palette, leading him to explore a new, purified form of painting.About the Framed Prints
