Felix Vallotton
Reclining Nude 1914
Rest 1911
The White and the Black 1913
Turkish Bath 1907
What a great artist Felix Vallotton was. He was prolific and there are many examples to be found of his work online, however I was only familiar with a couple of his images in books that I have at home.
Here are a handful of nudes that I found recently when googling his images. His art has a clean, smart sense of design. He had a wonderful feeling for dynamic color and form.
He even did a portrait of Gertrude Stein.
Félix Edouard Vallotton (December 28, 1865 – December 29, 1925) was a
Swiss painter associated with Les Nabis.
