Upgrade your walls with Music Theory - Pierre Bonnard - Canvas Oil Painting. Every fine art reproduction is painted entirely by hand, so the surface carries the depth and variation of an original oil painting rather than the flatness of a digital canvas print.
Le Solfège is an intimate example of a domestic portrait. The theme of La vie bourgeoise is a subject that preoccupied Bonnard from the time of his intimiste interiors of the 1890s onwards. In the present work, the young boy is depicted in smart attire, wearing a black top and hat and with fashionable long blond ringlets. He is not, however, posing for the artist, but is captured in a private moment, studying his sheet music, and seemingly unaware of being observed and painted. The viewer on the other hand seems to be made acutely aware that what he is being asked to witness and participate in is the conscious process of looking.
Commenting on the artist's interiors, Denys Sutton noted: 'This desire to maintain at fever pitch the moment of creation, and to prolong the thrill of rapture determine the character of Bonnard's art. The finest of his...pictures throb with intensity. He secured a magical transformation of the real world so that the interior of his studio or [the wonderment of a child when facing ordinary things] assumes an infectious radiance' (D. Sutton, Pierre Bonnard (exhibition catalogue), Royal Academy of Arts, London, 1966, p. 24).
Collectors often choose this fine art image when searching for fine art oil painting that feels substantial rather than decorative or disposable.
Oil on canvas remains the reference standard for post-impressionist reproductions. Our artists apply pigment by hand, blending the fine art tones directly on the surface for depth that a printed fine art oil painting simply cannot match.
post-impressionist canvas wall art is one of the easiest ways to warm a gallery wall. Pair this piece with natural linen, dark wood, or brushed brass, and let the hand painted surface do the rest.
