More about this artwork

Henri Le Sidaner's painting "La petite table" from 1920 is an exquisite exploration of light and tranquility, capturing a serene moment in a secluded garden. The artwork depicts an intimate setting featuring a small table clothed in white, positioned outdoors amidst a lush backdrop. The table is laid with various objects that suggest a quiet meal or a moment of contemplation—there are bowls filled with what appears to be fruit, alongside elegant vessels and a blue-decorated plate that adds a splash of vibrant color.The surroundings are adorned with dense foliage and flowers, draping over the architecture in a soft, impressionistic manner. The window and door in the background, partially obscured by the cascading leaves and blooms, invite curiosity about the space beyond. Le Sidaner has masterfully used dappled light and a muted palette to evoke a sense of peace and private delight.This painting, like much of Le Sidaner’s work, offers a glimpse into a quiet, almost secret world, where the play of light and shadow creates an atmosphere that is both enchanting and introspective. Positioned in the context of 1920s France, "La petite table" also reflects a universal and timeless desire for a personal sanctuary amidst the beauty of nature.

Henri Eugène Augustin Le Sidaner (7 August 1862 – 14 July 1939) who was a contemporary of the Post-impressionists, was an intimist painter known for his paintings of domestic interiors and quiet street scenes. His style contained elements of impressionism with the influences of Édouard Manet, Monet and of the Pointillists discernible in his work. Le Sidaner favoured a subdued use of colour, preferring nuanced greys and opals applied with uneven, dappled brushstrokes to create atmosphere and mysticism. A skilled nocturne painter, he travelled widely throughout France and Europe before settling at Gerberoy in the Picardy countryside from where he painted for over thirty years.

Le Sidaner's paintings and pastels were widely collected throughout his career. His seductive views of the gardens he created in the ruins of the medieval fortress at Gerberoy, with their recently vacated tables dappled in sunlight and overhung by roses, have cemented his reputation as a unique artist who does not fit easily into an art movement.
