The artwork, “Girl with a Dog in the Park at Grand Lemps (also known as Dauphine)” by Pierre Bonnard, created in 1900, is an oil painting on panel exemplifying the Post-Impressionism art movement. Measuring 52.1 x 69.8 cm, this landscape genre painting is presently held in a private collection.
The scene depicted in the artwork is a tranquil park landscape during late autumn or early winter. A girl, dressed in light attire, is seen walking a dog, adding a narrative element to the otherwise serene natural setting. The composition is rendered with loose, expressive brushstrokes typical of Post-Impressionism, emphasizing the texture of the trees and foliage. The background includes structures with red-tiled roofs, blending subtly into the organic surroundings. The use of muted colors and intricate detailing contributes to the painting’s contemplative and picturesque quality, encapsulating a moment of quiet beauty within nature.
