Description:
|
From 1919 onwards, Dufy continually returned to Vence, the southern base of his studies on Cézanne. It is here that a mature and original pictorial style becomes apparent, as his experiments under the influence of Impressionism, Fauvism and Cézanne's Cubism made him more aware of his own abilities. By the time Dufy painted Le Bal in 1920, he had found his own style: brilliant and direct colors are combined with simplified figures and schematic compositions, which vividly evoke the lively narratives of modern life. The year 1920 was a milestone for him; he signed a gallery contract for a one-man show (1921), after which he received numerous public and private commissions. Bastille Day (July 14) celebrations were a theme for Dufy. (Source: Christie's; http://www.christies .com/)
