Review
'Belinda Thomson's excellent and skilled biography is the finest analysis of Vuillard's life we have ... This sympathetic, vivid and detailed account is exemplary.'

Product Description
Edouard is widely recognised as one of the most brilliant and sensuous painters of the twentieth century. He was a quiet and perceptive observer, whose paintings are both tender and intriguing in theie portrayal of human relationships. This monograph follows his development from his early association with the Nabis painters, his small-scale interiors and his sumptuous but refined use of colour, to his theatre decorations and later portraits. Other work by the author includes "The Post Impressionists" and "Gauguin".

Superb reproductions of Vuillard's work., Jun 5 1999
By geriphowe@aol.com - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vuillard (Hardcover)
I studied my daughter-in-law's book intently and found the beautiful reproductions highly stimulating. I had not realized what a superb colorist Vuillard was. Although distemper is too tedious for me to use, I am hoping I can utilize some of his delicious color effects in the pastel portraits I paint.This books shows what a wonderful portrait painter he was. He located his subjects in their personal surroundings in a masterful manner. Don't understand why it is so hard to locate this book. Will call you to see how long it will take to obtain a copy. I recommend it to everyone who cares about painting and visual beauty.This is no slick coffee table books but a gentle, lovely publication.
