Mozart: Piano Quartet No. 1 in G minor, KV 478

Pierre Bonnard, Pot bleu, Signed Bonnard (lower left), Oil on canvas, 18 1/8 by 15 3/4 in., Image Source: Sotheby’s

“The glistening azure-glazed vessel and vibrant floral arrangement exemplify Bonnard’s application of the intimisme of his earlier Nabis pictures and the vibrant coloration that define the most successful compositions of his later years.  Still-lifes had occupied a large part of the artist’s oeuvre over the course of his career, but as he developed his style, his approach to these compositions is much more experimental.  Pot bleu evidences his more daring approach in compositional arrangement, as he bunches the tablecloth in front of the bouquet so that the underlying fabric is just as dominant as any other feature in the composition.”
