This lot consists of a hand painted oil on canvas rendered in style of the French painter Edouard Vuillard (1868-1940). Painting signed at the lower left corner: E Vuillard
He was a French painter, decorative artist and printmaker. From 1891 through 1900, he was a prominent member of the Nabis, making paintings which assembled areas of pure color, and interior scenes, influenced by Japanese prints, where the subjects were blended into colors and patterns. He also was a decorative artist, painting theater sets, panels for interior decoration, and designing plates and stained glass. After 1900, when the Nabis broke up, he adopted a more realistic style, painting landscapes and interiors with lavish detail and vivid colors. In the 1920s and 1930s he painted portraits of prominent figures in French industry and the arts in their familiar settings.Vuillard was influenced by Paul Gauguin, among other post-impressionist painters.
