Great and warm lecture, thank you so much, I enjoyed it all the way; Rousseau had such a refined sense of humor which until now I wasn't really aware of...

Enjoyed the walk through his dream like landscapes. Thank you for striking the high points of his career and the body of his work that many may well be familiar with. Sadly few of his paintings are visible in the States and many will never know the feeling of standing near one of his works.

Some of his works remind me of the work of Frida Khalo (sp?----I'm sure that's not right, but I think you know who I am referring to!) , the stiff figures and odd placements. His art is such a unique mixture of nature and geometry and displays a wide range of qualities----from quite primitive and childish to assured command of his ideas. He certainly had a signature in terms of color, especially in the greens which he can claim as definitively HIS greens. I prefer his landscapes way and above his portraits...or rather his ATTEMPTS at portraiture. Nice to see a discussion of his work, his strange view of the world. Definitely (to me) an early explorer of the dreamy-type of surrealism. Thanks for the video. Fun to see so much of his work in one place!
