About the piece

Painted around 1884, this oil study by the Nabis movement founder Édouard Vuillard depicts his close friend and muse, Misia Sert. The work exemplifies Vuillard's 'Intimist' style, using the raw texture of its cardboard support and a muted palette to capture a quiet moment of domestic musicality with sophisticated, textured brushwork.
