From $25.00

Henri Rousseau’s 1886 Carnival Evening reissued as a modern art print of a costumed Pierrot couple standing in a moonlit clearing, bare birch trees rising into a deep teal sky, a small dark hut on the left and a single bright moon above with two soft drifting clouds. Printed in our Perth studio on stretched canvas, framed paper, floating frame or rolled paper, this modern Australian art print suits hushed bedrooms, hallway nooks and design-led reading rooms wanting a quietly melancholic modernist canvas.

Artwork Description

Carnival Evening is a portrait-landscape painting by Henri Rousseau created in 1886. An air of eerieness seems to pervade this wintry forest landscape. Dressed in festive carnival costumes, a lone couple stands in front of barren trees. The figures seem to shine from within, which leaves the forest in darkness and an unexplained face leers out from the empty hut beside the figures.

*** please note, we have two versions of this artwork, this one with the grey sky and another with a more patterned green sky.***

A self-taught artist and retired customs inspector, Rousseau was admired by Pablo Picasso and other avant-garde artists for his originality and the naïve purity of his vision but ridiculed by critics. We have a huge collection of classical art prints, click here for a world of inspiration.

Like all the art on our website, this product is available in a wide choice of formats. Our most popular formats are framed prints & stretched canvas prints, however, the product can also be purchased as a rolled canvas (no support frame), paper print, floating frame (our most premium product which combines a canvas print and a framed print).
