Fauvism was not discovered, it was a method of painting that was developed by a group of French artists who called themselves les Fauves. Their paintings exhibited strong color and painterly qualities. Henri Matisse and Andre Derain where the main leaders of Fauvism, which only lasted a few years.
Henri Matisse employed the Fauvist convention of bold, non-naturalistic color in "Madame Matisse" to convey emotional intensity rather than realistic representation. He used vibrant, contrasting hues to enhance the subject's features and evoke a sense of mood, particularly through the striking use of green and red. This approach highlights the expressive potential of color, a hallmark of Fauvism, allowing Matisse to focus on the emotional resonance of his wife’s portrait rather than her literal appearance.
Before Fauvism was Impressionism and post-Impressionism, and many impressionistic styles influenced Fauvism. Fauvism was headed by Henri Matisse (1869-1954), Maurice de Vlaminck (1876-1958) and André Derain (1880-1954). Eventually, however, Fauvism diminished to make way for the rise of cubism, art deco and surrealism, all in the early part of the 20th century .
