Objects from Rousseau's Tropical Imagination


Each of these Rousseau-inspired objects have been photographed with a printing of a fish that my boys Gio and Eamon did. It's a Japanese art form called Gyotaku. The images and colors remind me of Rousseau and they make the perfect background for the objects I've chosen.

The flounder above is pictured with a journal my sister Teresa gave me. 


A bass with a turtle pendant I bought at Anthropologie


A piranha with an ikat scarf I bought in Khotan, China


An angel fish with a wooden decorative object I bought in Kashgar, China.


Another piranha with a bowl of marbles.
