Kees van Dongen was a Dutch-French painter who worked primarily in oils, with a background shaped by both the Hague School and symbolism. She employed bold brushwork and exploited a vivid, radical Fauvist palette, often using rough pointillist techniques and expressive forms. Her dynamic depictions of nightlife and striking, sensuous portraits exude exuberance, energy, and unapologetic sensuality.
