Andre · Derain (1880-1954) was a France painter and one of the pioneers of Fauvism. In his early years at the Camillo School of Art, Delan attended Eugène · Caril's painting classes, where he met his future art partner, Henri · Matisse. Early in his career, Matisse was heavily influenced, and together the two explored and founded Fauvism.
In 1905, Deran and Matisse traveled around the south of France to paint and exhibited their innovative paintings at the Salon d'Autone. The paintings attracted widespread attention for their vivid, unnatural colors and rugged brushstrokes, and critics Louis · Vaux even derisively called their works "beasts," thus marking the birth of Fauvism.

The Hill of Colior embodies the early Fauvist style of Derang, with segmented patches, rapid curves, and contrasting colors that depict the beauty of the mountains.
In 1906, De Lang traveled to London at the instigation of the famous art dealer Ambrose · Worrad to create a series of paintings on the theme of the city. These works, which depict scenes of London in bold colours and compositions, such as the River Thames and Tower Bridge, became one of his most popular works.
Westminster Bridge is one of Delang's masterpieces during his time in London, with bright colours and simple brushstrokes, showing the beauty of the River Thames.

In his subsequent career, De Lang's works gradually changed from the rough style of Fauvism to a more traditional and delicate style, and tried to integrate the elements of artists such as Van ·, Gauguin, and Cézanne with Impressionism and Neo-Impressionism into his creations.
