The Pastoral Symphony
1916-1920
Pierre Bonnard is an artist with whom colors were often the most intense characters in his pieces, creating various strong effects throughout a single canvas. But quite a few of his creations, such as
The Indolent Woman below, were muted in color and strange in character. There's also an extremely off-putting quality in many of Bonnard's paintings that I find absolutely wonderful in its own intense way.
