Old Man Juniet's Trap 1908

Henri Rousseau's "Old Man Juniet's Trap" (1908) is a vibrant and whimsical portrayal of a horse-drawn carriage, with a family of four, two dogs, and a backdrop of lush greenery. Rousseau, a self-taught painter, is known for his "naive" style, which is characterized by flat, simple forms and bold colors, creating a unique and engaging visual experience. This painting, now housed in the Musée de l'Orangerie, Paris, captures the essence of Rousseau's distinctive art, blending the ordinary with the fantastical and showcasing the captivating beauty of the natural world.
