More about this artwork

"Femme Sortant Du Bain" is an exemplary work by French painter Pierre Bonnard, celebrated for his intense use of color and intimate, candid depictions of domestic life. This painting, dating from around 1925, offers viewers a glance into the personal and subtle moments of daily routine.The scene captures a woman emerging from a bath, a common theme in Bonnard's oeuvre, which often features his wife Marthe as his muse. In this artwork, the woman bends forward in a fluid, almost ethereal posture, emphasizing the act of drying herself off with a towel. Bonnard’s choice of perspective and framing draws us intimately close to the subject, making this private moment almost tangible.The background of the painting consists of mosaic-like tiles and a blurred window, suggesting the warmth and privacy of an interior bathed in soft, filtered light. The checkerboard pattern of the floor contrasts with the curved forms of the tub and the figure, adding a dynamic complexity to the simple act portrayed.Bonnard's gifted brushwork and his use of a rich palette of yellows, blues, and soft whites highlight his unique ability to blend colors on canvas, creating a luminosity that seems to radiate from within the scene. This painting not only showcases Bonnard's mastery of color and composition but also reflects the everyday beauty and tranquility he perceived in the routine moments of private life."Femme Sortant Du Bain" invites the viewer to pause and appreciate the quiet beauty of the mundane, a theme that Bonnard so delicately and powerfully memorializes in his work.

Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947) was a French post-impressionist painter, printmaker, and the leader of the Intimist art movement. He is regarded as one of the greatest colourists of modern art. Together with other young artists in Montmarte, Bonnard co-founded the group known as Les Nabis, translated from the arabic word “prophet”. He was known for a painting style that was very intimate, featuring friends in a garden, nudes, interiors and sunlit objects of everyday life. He began by painting in watercolor, composing scenes and deeply familiarizing himself with the subject, before transferring the composition to canvas. In many of his paintings, his mistress Marthe was the main subject. She was his most important model and was often pictured nude, after 30 years they finally married.
