More about this artwork

This striking piece by Pierre Bonnard, titled "Woman With An Umbrella," presents a dramatic and stylized portrayal of a woman in motion. The image captures the woman with her body tilted forward, her arms dynamically positioned as if bracing against a strong wind or adjusting her movement. The style is characterized by bold, minimalistic brush strokes primarily in black, with touches of peach on her face and hat. This sparing use of color focuses the viewer’s attention on the fluidity and motion conveyed through the sweeping lines and dramatic contrasts.The woman's attire suggests elements of fashion from the early 20th century, likely indicating the period when this artwork was created. Her hat, adorned with what appears to be floral or ribbon decorations, adds to the dynamic quality of the image, enhancing the sense of weather conditions or hurried movement.Bonnard's work here cleverly balances between abstract and representational, leaving much to the imagination while conveying a vivid sense of a moment captured in time. The stark contrast of the black against the white background amplifies the dramatic impact of the figure's silhouette, making this a compelling study of form and 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.
