The portrait titled "Portrait of Derain" captures the essence of André Derain, a pioneering French artist and co-founder of Fauvism. Originally known for his vibrant, riotous color palette from 1905-1906, his style evolved by 1910, adopting a more austere tone influenced by Cézanne and the old masters. The portrait reflects his artistic journey—from the expressive Fauve style to a more classical approach after the war, as he became a leading figure in the Return to Order movement.
