{"product_id":"quietude-kees-van-dongen","title":"Quiétude - Kees van Dongen","description":"\u003cp\u003eQuiétude by Kees van Dongen is a Fauvist oil painting featuring reclining figures, a sleeping dog, and a seated monkey rendered in bold, simplified forms and intense colours, conveying a sense of tranquillity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKees van Dongen, a Dutch painter who became a key figure in the Fauvist movement, is recognised for his bold colours and sensual portraits. Born in 1877, van Dongen's artistic journey took him from Rotterdam to Paris, where he immersed himself in the avant-garde circles of the early 20th century. His work often features simplified forms and intense hues, reflecting the Fauvist emphasis on subjective expression over realistic representation. Van Dongen's paintings capture the spirit of his time, marked by social change and artistic experimentation. Quiétude presents a scene of repose, rendered in van Dongen's signature style. The composition features two reclining figures, one in a striking red and the other in a deep blue, their forms simplified and elongated. A sleeping dog rests at the bottom, with a blue monkey seated beside it. Two birds, one red and one blue, perch in the upper-left corner. The background is a muted grey, allowing the figures to dominate the visual space. The painting's title, meaning 'tranquillity' or 'quietude', is reflected in the serene atmosphere conveyed through the composition and colour choices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/self-portrait-albert-marquet-albert-marquet\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eSelf-Portrait (Albert Marquet) - Albert Marquet — Albert Marquet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/tree-and-rock-alfred-henry-maurer\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eTree and Rock - Alfred Henry Maurer — Alfred Henry Maurer\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kees van Dongen","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57713770463567,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57713771970895,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57713772003663,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57713772036431,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57713772069199,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Qui-tude_Poster_CompositorV1_1778981406164.jpg?v=1778981535","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/quietude-kees-van-dongen","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
