Tugboat on the Seine, Chatou by Maurice de Vlaminck

https://www.nga.gov/artworks/106379-tugboat-seine-chatou

Vlaminck is often portrayed as the most unruly painter of the fauve school, an impression that reflects both on his personality (as it is revealed in his biography and writings) and his work. A self-taught artist, Vlaminck insisted that painting should be the unmediated expression of an artist’s temperament, „emotive, tender, ferocious, as natural as life itself.“ [1] Indeed, having been an anarchist sympathizer during the prewar period, he would later link the strident colorism and bold brushwork of his work to social and political dissent, a connection that was actually made by several art critics.
