High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Raoul Dufy (3 June 1877 – 23 March 1953) was a French Fauvist painter. He developed a colourful, decorative style that became fashionable for designs of ceramics, textiles and decorative schemes for public buildings. He is noted for scenes of open-air social events. Raoul Dufy was born at Le Havre, in Normandy, one of a family of nine members. He left school at the age of 14 to work in a coffee importing company. In 1895 when he was 18, he started evening classes in art at Le Havre Ecole des Beaux-Arts. He and Othon Friesz, a school friend, studied the works of Eugene Boudin in the museum in Le Havre. In 1900, after a year of military service, Raoul won a scholarship enabling him to attend the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts, in Paris, where he was a fellow student with Georges Braque. The impressionist landscapists, such as Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro, influenced him.
