It was shown in 1891 and although one serious artist wrote a favorable review and said it was not to be missed, most art critiques and the general public laughed at it and called it childish. It t was more than a decade before Rousseau returned to painting jungles. Today Henri Rousseau is regarded as the greatest of the 'modern primitive' painters.
