λ MAURICE DE VLAMINCK (FRENCH 1876-1958)PAYSAGE D'HIVEROil on canvas Signed (lower right)53.5 x 65cm (21 x 25½ in.)Provenance:Daniel Grossman, New YorkPrivate Collection (acquired from the above in 1990)Sale, Christie's, London, 7 February 2006, lot 294Purchased at the above sale by the present ownerThis work will be included in the forthcoming Maurice de Vlaminck Digital Database, currently being prepared under the sponsorship of the Wildenstein Plattner Institute, Inc.The present work is typical of Vlaminck's later palette which is characterised by strong, dark colours punctuated by thickly applied splashes of white. The composition is also one that the artist frequently painted, with the wide street bordered by houses or farms which guides the viewer's eye though the scene. These later works contrast considerably from Vlaminck's earlier Fauvist palette of bright intense colours that had initially brought him to attention at the beginning of the 20th century. Alongside his lifelong friend, André Derain as well as Henri Matisse Albert Marquet Jean Puy and Charles Camoin Vlaminck participated in the famous Salon d'Automne of 1905. When critic Louis Vauxcelles saw their vividly painted compositions, he described them as 'Fauves' (wild beasts), thus coining the term by which they would later become known.
