Julia Rovinsky: Sonata A Major K.331 (Mozart)

Pierre Bonnard (1867 – 1947), Le corsage rayé, signed Bonnard (lower right), oil on canvas, 64 by 45.1cm., 25¼ by 17¾in., Painted circa 1922, Image Source: Sotheby’s

“Painted circa 1922, Le corsage rayé presents a radiant and quintessential example of Bonnard’s mastery of the interior scene. Painted from memory, Bonnard’s domestic vignettes stemmed from lived experience and years of inhabiting the same space as his subjects. Among his favoured models, …was his long-time muse and eventual wife Marthe de Méligny… Marthe’s enigmatic presence populates dozens of his works just as she suffused their shared life in the south of France. The dark-haired beauty is seen always in quiet, contemplative moments and most frequently portrayed at the table or in the bath, her gaze thoughtfully cast downward or away from the viewer.
