Maria Bozoky made this watercolour painting, "Solange listening to Chopin", sometime in the 20th century. The washes of colour create a dreamy atmosphere, blurring the lines between form and feeling, where marks are left to drip and stain. It is a fluid and intuitive process, one that invites the viewer to fill in the gaps. The watery surface of the painting gives it a delicate quality. The way Bozoky layers the colours – the soft reds of Solange’s dress, the electric blues of the chair, and the muted tones of the pianist – it all comes together to create a scene that feels both intimate and slightly melancholic. Look at the way Bozoky handles the face of Solange, so tender and suggestive. The light touch seems to be a conversation with artists like Bonnard, who also captured the beauty of everyday life with sensitivity and grace.
