Did You Know?

Ker Xavier Roussel married Marie Vuillard, the sister of painter and fellow Nabi artist Édouard Vuillard.

Description

Almost indistinguishable from the patterned landscape surrounding her, a woman in a striped dress strolls through a spring landscape. In this image, Ker Xavier Roussel explored a decorative abstraction that blended figure and ground into a field of shared color.
A horizontally oriented color lithograph depicts a woman with light skin tone facing away from us. Positioned on the left, she wears a dress with vertical dark gray and red stripes. Short green lines form a grassy field around her, while three rounded gray trees stand near scattered red dots in the background. Muted blue and gray strokes create a sky and define a path in the lower right corner.
