“Synchrony in Green is a composition characterised by a limited colour range. The simplification of planes reinforces the sober and expressive nature of this still life, and these values are in turn heightened by the geometric shapes of the elements portrayed. Set in an undefined interior, in the foreground we perceive a jug and three lemons on the table covered with a green tablecloth and, on a second plane, a larger vase containing a eucalyptus branch, to the right of which we see the back of a chair. In addition to its Cézannesque references, this canvas presents decorative and intimate values and is a work characterised by chromatic harmony.
Sérusier was a distinguished painter, professor and theoretician. In the town of Pont-Aven in Brittany he became a close friend of Gauguin’s, disseminating the latter’s artistic principles among other young contemporary painters such as Maurice Denis, Pierre Bonnard and Édouard Vuillard. Sérusier, whose organisational talent was clearly discernible in the formation of the artistic group known as the Nabis (prophets, in Hebrew), played an active part in drawing up the basic principles of Symbolism.
