Biography:
Kees van Dongen moved to Paris in 1897 and eventually became a French citizen in 1929. His initial style was Impressionist but he eventually joined the Fauves in 1906. Two years later, he was exhibiting with the Die Brucke group, mostly painting his somewhat erotic female nudes in their Expressionist fashion. Sometimes controversial, one of Dongen’s works was seized by the police from the 1913 Salon d’Automne on the grounds that is was indecent. He then began painting fashionable women subjects from high society, earning him international recognition after World War I. The height of his career occurred before 1920, and Dongen spent his late life in Monaco.
