Henri Julien Félix Rousseau ( French: [ɑʁi ʒyljɛ̃ feliks ʁuso] ; May 21, 1844 - September 2, 1910) was a French post-impressionist painter in a naive or primitive manner. He was also known as Le Douanier (the customs official), a humorous description of his profession as a toll and tax collector. He began painting seriously when he was in his early forties; at age 49 he retired to work full-time on his art.
During his lifetime ridiculed by critics, he was recognized as a self-taught genius whose works are of high artistic quality. Rousseau's work exerted a great influence on several generations of avant-garde artists.
