Question

Roger Fry’s study of this painter’s “development” contrasts his violent early subjects with his later claim to “treat nature according to cylinder, sphere and cone.” Along with Renoir and Rembrandt, this artist is the subject of a Picabia “portrait” that is just a toy monkey nailed to a piece of cardboard. Members of les Nabis surround a painting by this artist in an “Homage” by Maurice Denis [de-KNEE]. In a painting by this artist held in (*) Philadelphia, (10[1])two rows of trees form a triangle that frames its crouching subjects below. This artist violated perspective in still lifes like With Compotier and The Basket of Apples, as well as in a painting of nudes often given the adjective “Grandes.” For 10 points, name this Post-Impressionist artist of Large Bathers and several paintings of Mont Sainte-Victoire. ■END■
