Une typologie en peinture de trois modes d'être : le Douanier Rousseau, 1844-1910, Marquet, 1875-1947, Hopper, 1882-1967

For each three painters, the personal problematic they paint, comes from the singular relationship they have with the others. These are not the spectators touched what they paint. They are these massive and archaic personages which are, for the Douanier Rousseau, key symbols absolutely necessary to his creativity. The Marquet's silhouettes in ports landscapes, are the symbolic ties which allow him to paint. Men and women solitude inspires Hopper who can symbolize into painting this vacancy.
