Discovering Paris
For Hemingway, Paris was “the best city to allow a writer to write.” Who better than Jean Dufy to illustrate that it is also the best city to allow a painter to paint?
With Paris Aux Cent Couleurs, Galerie Jacques Bailly invites us to discover a unique perspective of Paris with a fully-illustrated guide to the works of Jean Dufy. The reader embarks on a journey amid the most iconic depictions of monuments, squares, bridges, and avenues adorning the City of Light, glorified by Dufy’s radiant palette.

Kees Van Dongen (1877-1968) was a Dutch painter and member of a group of painters using bright colours. They were called “les fauves” (the wild ones) for that reason. I can’t help copying this quote of his: “The essential thing is to elongate the women and especially to make them slim. After that it just remains to enlarge their jewels. They are ravished.”
