My Grandmother 1892

Édouard Vuillard's 1892 painting "My Grandmother" exemplifies the artist's signature style of Intimism, a movement characterized by intimate domestic scenes. The composition focuses on a woman, possibly Vuillard's grandmother, rendered in a loose, almost abstract fashion using bold strokes of color, particularly reds, yellows, and blues. This stylistic choice, known as pointillism, contributes to the work's sense of vibrancy and movement, as the viewer's eye is guided through the scene. The painting, housed in a private collection, measures 17.1 x 21.3 cm, making it a small-scale yet impactful work of art.
