About the piece
Created in 1893, this work by Édouard Vuillard is a quintessential example of the Nabis school's approach to decorative realism. The composition places the artist's mother, Madame Vuillard, within the vertical geometry of a set designer's studio, using a sophisticated palette of muted mauve, teal, and charcoal to create a modern, graphic sensibility.
