“By the 1920’s Le Sidaner was critically acclaimed and had succeeded in developing a unique style of painting, combining Impressionist ideas with his early symbolist influences. At the beginning of 1927, he painted a series of eight canvases, La Table, based on eight different colour harmonies which were exhibited with Galerie Georges Petit later that year. The exhibition was a great success, the artistic director of a leading art newspaper wrote rather poetically of them: ‘Here is Harmonie Jaune with shades of yellow flowers, the skin bitten with fruit, jewels and rays reminiscent of the splendours of the summer, since the dawn of the morning before, and Phebus sifting the earth of arrows of gold, until sunset to the vast purple clouds.’ (M. Fueillet, ‘Henri Le Sidaner, Pientre du silence’, in Le Gaulois Artistique, Paris, November 13, 1927.)”
