Henri Rousseau “The Equatorial Jungle” 1909

Henri Julien Félix Rousseau (21 May 1844 – 2 September 1910) was a French post-impressionist painter in the Naïve or Primitive manner.

He was also known as Le Douanier (the customs officer), a humorous description of his occupation as a toll and tax collector.

He started painting seriously in his early forties; by age 49, he retired from his job to work on his art full-time. A true testament that it is never too late to do what you love and are good at.

Rousseau claimed he had “no teacher other than nature”, and his best-known paintings depict jungle scenes, even though he never left France or saw a jungle.
