Meanwhile, in the life of Henri Edmond Cross
The whole life1905
First solo exhibition at the Galerie Druet
The Galerie Druet in Paris shows thirty paintings and thirty watercolors by Cross. The success is complete: the critics praise it, most of the works are sold, and the catalogue preface is written by the Belgian Symbolist poet Emile Verhaeren.
1907
Retrospective at the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune
Félix Fénéon assembles a Cross retrospective in Paris at the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune; Maurice Denis contributes the catalogue preface. His last years bring productive work, acclaim from the critics and commercial success.
1908
Second trip to Italy
He travels to Italy again — the second and last of his two trips beyond Provence, apart from the Paris exhibitions.
1909 – January 1910
Cancer: a Paris hospital and the return to Saint-Clair
In 1909 Cross is treated for cancer in a Paris hospital; in January 1910 he returns to Saint-Clair, where he stays until the end of his life.
