Georges ROUAULT (1871-1958) was a French artist who became famous in the first half of the 20th century, such as Picasso and Matisse. He participated in Salon d'Automne, and changed his style, with a dynamic touch, arranging the original colors and dark colors in the influence of his teacher, Gustave Moreau. He continued to paint the same subjects, circus clowns, prostitutes, judges, religious scenes, and the anger and sorrow of social injustice. Indeed, such creative activity is similar to Fauvism, but Rouault is considered to be an expressionist with a spiritual mind. In Japan, he was introduced by some artists and critics in the 1920s, such as Jutaro KURODA, Katsuzo SATOMI. This introduction is later than other Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, but he was popular among many Japanese artists and connoisseurs in an instant by the collection of Shigetaro FUKUSHIMA. His collection was introduced in an article of Bijyutsu-Shinron in 1929 and exhibited in Tokyo in 1934. Parts of his collection were lost, but some works are stored at the Bridgestone Museum, the Shiodome Museum and so on. I have outlined the details of Rouault's introduction, among others reception in Japan from the 1920s to the present.Georges ROUAULT (1871-1958) was a French artist who became famous in the first half of the 20th century, such as Picasso and Matisse.
