An obsessive Japonist, a mischievous intimist, a late Impressionist, a voluptuous nudist, a melancholy recorder of everyday life and the passage of time... Attempts to sum up Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947) in a single word or formula have all failed. Bonnard was much more than a mischievous or sensual observer of bourgeois mores, cultivating a comfortable hedonism that won the loyalty of a rapidly international clientele.
This monograph presents Bonnard as an ambitious artist, deeply rooted in the two centuries that were his: painter, photographer, decorator, pillar of the Revue Blanche, player in the Dreyfus Affair alongside Alfred Jarry, linked to Ambroise Vollard and the Bernheim-Jeune gallery, and protagonist during the crazy 1920s, the Popular Front and the Occupation.
