Comandă o printare a Man’s Head with Blue Beret

Filiger used outlined shapes and cross-hatching to render this portrait of a man from Le Pouldu. The work is characteristic of the simplicity the artist applied in his search for the essence of his subjects. This painting, which seems to be a simple portrait of a fisherman, could in fact be a self-portrait. The artist often returned to a similar facial type in his painting: elongated and pensive, with an inward gaze. Filiger, the most cryptic painter of the Pont-Aven group, produced works filled with mysticism that call to mind both religious icons and stained glass.

early life and training

charles filiger, a french symbolist painter, was born on november 28, 1863, in thann. as the son of a wallpaper manufacturer in mulhouse, filiger's artistic style would later be influenced by his family's profession. he first studied decorative arts before specializing in painting at the académie colarossi in paris.

association with gauguin and pont-aven

in 1888, filiger arrived in pont-aven, a village in brittany, where he associated with paul gauguin, a renowned post-impressionist painter. this period significantly influenced filiger's work, as seen in his paintings from the late 1880s and early 1890s. other notable artists who joined the colony during this time include paul sérusier, charles laval, meijer de haan, armand séguin, henry moret, and émile jourdan.

artistic style and patronage

from 1890, filiger received a monthly payment of 100 francs from his patron, count antoine de la rochefoucauld. this support allowed filiger to focus on his art, characterized by its geometric approach, expressionless faces, and mystical imagery. his landscapes, such as breton shore, reflect gauguin's abstract quality and simplification.

selected works and museums

plage au pouldu (c. 1890), private collection
