“Self-Portrait“ (1901)
_______
someone suggested that what one saw when
one looked into Dufy’s eyes was a reflection
of oneself, this seems to me to be nearly
incontestable, think about it

Such an intense gaze! He did see the world in a remarkable way.
We are also big fans of Raoul Dufy, but just recently came across his brother Jean’s work, have you seen it? Was it ignored because it was similar?
