Though he was mostly self-taught he did take private lessons from a few academic painters between 1888 and 1893. Reputed by many peers as a brash character, he often spoke of how a career in painting saved him from a life of destitution and crime. The artist died on October 11, 1958 in Rueil-la-Gadelière, France at the age of 82. Today, Vlaminck’s works are held in the collections of the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, the Tate Gallery in London, the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, and The Museum of Modern Art in New York, among others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GOLDEN RULE GALLERY VINTAGE ART","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50875199455490,"sku":"kbd1793026858164","price":72.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/4285\/5426\/files\/vintage-1940s-vlaminck-boat-wash-houses-swiss-art-print_1.jpg?v=1793026866","url":"https:\/\/modestreetfashion.shop\/products\/vintage-1940s-vlaminck-boat-wash-houses-swiss-art-print","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
