Georges Rouault (French 1871-1958)
“Personnage de Cirque” (homme debout), 1906
Expressive early watercolor depicting a standing circus figure, executed with Rouault’s characteristic bold contouring, compressed forms, and somber tonal layering; the figure—rendered with loose, energetically applied washes of blue, ochre, and umber—reflects Rouault’s interest in the theatrical and human condition during his important early circus period
