More about this artwork

"Woman With An Umbrella" by Pierre Bonnard, created in 1894, is an intriguing work that captures the essence of Bonnard's unique style, combining elements of Impressionism with the emerging tenets of Post-Impressionism. The painting presents a solitary female figure clad in a dark dress, struggling against a gust of wind that coaxes dynamic movement and energy from her attire and the umbrella she clutches.This lithograph is a study in contrasts and motion. The woman's dress and the flowing lines of the umbrella are rendered in bold black, creating a striking silhouette against the stark white background. The splash of color on her cheek and the intricacies of her hat add a tactile sense of liveliness and depth to the composition. Bonnard's use of minimal color and sharp contrasts focuses the viewer's attention on the play of light and shadow, emphasizing the atmospheric effects of the windy scene.The mood of the painting is reflective of a fleeting, ephemeral moment captured with spontaneity and a palpable sense of movement.

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.
