André Derain "Charing Cross Bridge, London" (ASL)
Charing Cross Bridge is typical of the Fauvist style, which André Derain developed alongside Henri Matisse, featuring vibrant and unblended colors. Derain painted this while visiting London and captured similar subjects to those Claude Monet had famously painted just a few years previously, though Derain’s color palette and perspective on the scenes contrast sharply with the Impressionist master’s work.
