After Raoul Dufy: Nude Listening to a Sea Shell
Raoul Dufy (French, 1877-1953) After: Nude Listening to a Sea Shell. Etching on paper, signed in plate lower left. Unframed.

Although inspired by Matisse and resembling him in his devotion to rhythmic line, pure color and decorative effects, Dufy was a painter of great independence and originality. During the first half of the 20th century, the Fauves, the Cubists, and the Surrealists dominated the art of France. Throughout all of these developments, Dufy went on painting the most highly civilized subjects he could find, the elegant holiday places and events of the rich.
