Marie en caraco à sa toilette 1891 - 1892

Édouard Vuillard's "Marie en caraco à sa toilette" (1891-1892) captures the intimate moment of a woman preparing for the day. The pastel drawing is known for its evocative use of color and soft, blurred lines, which create a sense of intimacy and quietude. The composition is centered on Marie, seen from behind as she adjusts her clothing. The pastel colors used by Vuillard highlight the woman's form and the surrounding domestic details, creating a soft and delicate atmosphere. Vuillard's works, like this one, are often associated with the artistic movement of Nabis, which aimed to convey emotion and feeling through color and form.
