In 1906 #AndréDerain made 30 #paintings of #london “Some of his views of the #thames use the #pointillist technique of multiple dots, although by this time, because the dots have become much larger, it is rather more simply the separation of colours called #divisionism and it is peculiarly effective in conveying the fragmentation of colour in moving #water in #sunlight." This one has a #multicolour sky and #river with the skyline of #westminster and that #bridge #Fauves #colour #color

This #landscape by #AndréDerain uses #colour in a very strong way. #red and #purple trees, a #green sky and so on. #Fauvism was the first avant-garde art movement of the #20thcentury It was characterised by intense, expressive, non-naturalistic colour, along with loose brushwork and simplified forms. As #Matisse, another ‘Fauve’, put it, "When I put down a green, it doesn't mean grass; and when I put down a blue, it doesn't mean the sky''. Colour, in short, was completely set free. This in 1906
