In the life of Henri Edmond Cross
The whole life1890s
Meets Fénéon, Gide and Verhaeren
In the 1890s he works alongside Signac and gets to know the writers and critics Félix Fénéon, André Gide and Emile Verhaeren.
1896
Lithograph “The Wanderer” for an anarchist journal
The lithograph “L’Errant” (“The Wanderer”), his first work with a publisher, appeared anonymously in Jean Grave’s anarchist journal Les Temps Nouveaux. Like Signac and Pissarro, Cross held anarchist principles, and they shaped his choice of subjects — scenes of a utopian world.
1898
The first Neo-Impressionist exhibition in Germany
In 1898, together with Signac, Maximilien Luce and Théo van Rysselberghe, he takes part in the first Neo-Impressionist exhibition in Germany, organized by Harry Kessler at the Keller und Reiner Gallery.
