Fauvism is an avant-garde art movement that emerged in France at the turn of the 20th century.

Led by artists such as Henri Matisse and André Derain, Fauvism was a short-lived but influential movement that had a profound impact on the development of modern art. At its core, Fauvism is an exploration of color and form, seeking to capture the essence of the subject through vivid hues and dynamic compositions.
