The Yellow Curtain - Édouard Vuillard
The intimate veil of decor: the chromatic poetry of The Yellow Curtain

The canvas blends warm ochres and muted greens, applied in tight touches that suggest texture without imposing detail, creating a cozy and enveloping atmosphere. The close framing and curtain motif establish a visual tension between decorative surface and narrative depth, inviting the viewer’s eye to move between pattern and silhouette. The overall exudes a contemplative softness, imbued with a sensitivity characteristic of Vuillard’s approach to everyday life.
Édouard Vuillard, master of Intimism and the Nabis
Born at the heart of the late 19th-century avant-garde, Édouard Vuillard distinguished himself among the Nabis through his focus on interiors, fabrics, and pattern play. Influenced by symbolism and Japanese decoration, he favored a painting where colored structure replaces traditional perspective, encouraging an inward reading of scenes. His decorative panels and portraits of friends testify to a pictorial vocabulary based on suggestion and subtle orchestration of planes. Major works and decorative collaborations have earned him lasting recognition in art history, making each painting a refined study of everyday life transformed into an image.
