He Takes Her By Her Long Beautiful Hair 1892

"He Takes Her By Her Long Beautiful Hair" is a woodcut print from 1892 by French artist Émile Bernard, known for his contributions to the Post-Impressionist movement. The work depicts a stylized scene of a man holding a woman's hair, with a strong focus on outlines and simplified forms. The use of a single color palette evokes a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, characteristic of Bernard's exploration of narrative and symbolic imagery in his art. This piece is considered a significant example of Bernard's distinct style, often showcasing strong contours, bold colors, and an expressionistic approach to figures.
