Lot 11ba Original Signed Lithograph Pierre Bonnard
lithograph in the manner of Pierre Bonard bearing the signature titled "Nude Before a Mirrior" circa 1933, This is one of Bonnard's many variations of the same theme: a nude - generally his wife Marthe - standing before a mirror in undisturned self-contemplation. As the artist's friend Natanson wrote" 'The colours of a woman's flesh and their correspondences with the surrounding atomsphere constitute the real subject of the picture.' The subtle yet pervasive gold, blues, pinks and greens that define forms and surfaces throughout the room are all repeated in the model's luminous flesh tones. Comes with certificate of authenticity, framing available at an additional cost.
