The artwork entitled “Striped Blouse” was created by Pierre Bonnard around the year 1922. Executed in oil on canvas, the painting measures 63.8 by 45.1 centimeters and falls within the genre of portraiture. It is a notable example of the Post-Impressionism art movement and is currently held in a private collection.
The artwork depicts a woman with short, auburn hair seated at a table. She is dressed in a vibrant red blouse adorned with white stripes. The woman appears to be in a moment of contemplation or distraction, her head resting on her hand. The background features soft, tranquil hues of green and blue, which contrast with the vividness of her blouse. The details in the painting, including the use of light and shadow, contribute to its emotive and introspective atmosphere. The loose, expressive brushstrokes typical of Bonnard’s Post-Impressionist style are evident, adding a sense of texture and depth to the composition.
