고등학교 2학년 영어교과서 천재 이재영 2과 본문 mp3 자료입니다.
It was around the turn of the 20th century that Rousseau’s paintings began to attract some young artists.
They were bored with existing painting styles and Rousseau’s paintings met their desire for a new trend.
Especially, Pablo Picasso admired the strange energy of Rousseau’s paintings because they looked unfamiliar and mysterious.
Some of the most well-known of Rousseau’s paintings are a series of jungle paintings.
Rousseau produced twenty-six jungle paintings in the final six years of his life.
In fact, he had never traveled outside of France or seen a jungle.
Then how did he create his jungle scenes?
It was from illustrated books and botanical gardens that he received inspiration.
He frequently visited the Jardin des Plantes (Garden of Plants), a combined zoo and botanical garden in Paris.
Whenever he went there, he observed a lot of exotic animals and plants.
Rousseau said of his visits, “When I am in these hothouses and see the strange plants from exotic lands, it seems to me that I am entering a dream.”
In this way, he created his own mysterious jungle paintings where reality and fantasy coexist.
