Raoul Dufy (French, 1877–1953) was a painter, illustrator, textile designer, and printmaker, celebrated for his joyful depictions of leisure, music, and the French Riviera. Associated with Fauvism, alongside Matisse and Derain, Dufy developed a distinctive style marked by bright color, elegant linework, and a lyrical sense of spontaneity. His art captured the optimism of early 20th-century France—sailing regattas, orchestras, gardens, and festivals rendered with lighthearted sophistication. Dufy’s works are held in major museums worldwide, including the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, where he is remembered as a master of color, rhythm, and joie de vivre.
