About the piece

Painted in 1892, this portrait by Émile Bernard showcases the artist's Cloisonnist style, characterized by bold contours and flat areas of expressive color. The sitter, Marie Lemasson, is depicted with a quiet dignity against a moody, textured background that emphasizes the luminous quality of her lavender garment.
