Postcard Bonnard - The White cat

IC005543
Bonnard practices here the deformation to show with humor this cat doing the arched back. Strange animal, disproportionately arched on her paws, her head tucked in her shoulders, her eyes split and the air smart. He seems both familiar and savage.

The work and its artist

Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947)

A major post-impressionist painter of 20th century art, he was at first one of the painters of the Nabis group with whom he remained in friendship throughout his life. However, he developed an independent and unclassifiable work, offering the appearance of simplicity although of a rare complexity, without taking into account the major movements of his time such as cubism or surrealism.
