Exposition Bonnard du mardi 24 mai au samedi 11 juin 1921

Bonnard, Pierre, 1867-1947. · 1921 · Paris : MM. Bernheim-Jeune · 7 pictures

This is an exhibition catalogue for a Pierre Bonnard show held in Paris in May and June 1921, published by Bernheim-Jeune for gallery visitors and collectors. Its reproductions are soft, grey halftones of intimate interiors, open landscapes and garden scenes, showing Bonnard's loose, colour-saturated patterning rendered in monochrome. A designer might take from them the method of building flat decorative pattern through overlapping foliage, tablecloths and figured wallpaper, with figures set quietly inside domestic space.
