Description: | Signed: yes Description: Until recently this painting was thought to show Vuillard's sister, Marie and her baby daughter. The woman in the painting has, however, been identified as Vuillard's muse, Misia Natanson, and the baby as her half-brother Cipa's first child Mimi Godebska. This claustrophobic room, a riot of floral patterns was in the Natanson's Parisian apartment. Drawn into the painting by rich colour and by a profusion of surfaces and textures, the viewer is presented with a roomful of puzzles. There are numerous ambiguities of form and space, for example, is that a dog or a dog and a cat behind Misia on the chaise longue? | Subjects: | everyday life; figure; interior | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Vuillard, Edouard (French painter and printmaker, 1868-1940) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8798... | Go to resource |
