Alfred Maurer

Alfred Maurer (1868-1932) Fauve Landscape (ca1907)
Like Arthur B. Carles, it is not certain that the American modernist Alfred Maurer actually enrolled at the Académie Matisse, but he is believed to have done, and his work from the period is certainly in the fauve vein. A graduate of the National Academy of Design, New York, his early work, which received critical recognitions, was influenced by Whistler and William Merritt Chase. He was based in Paris from 1897-1914, and continued to paint fauve landscapes.
