BONNARD, PIERRE & MARTHE
1893. When aspiring French artist Pierre Bonnard - a protégé of Claude Monet - meets Marthe de Méligny, he has no idea that this self-proclaimed aristocrat will become the cornerstone of his life and work. From this moment, though she appears in over a third of his work, she's more than just a muse; together over five decades, the couple will explore creative fulfillment.
"Beautiful. A touching and visually fetching look at the intertwining of art and stubborn romance. This tale of strong brush strokes and strong emotions — and how places evoke feelings and memories — effortlessly recalls a time when “wellness” classes weren’t needed to connect with nature because nature mattered as much as man-made beauty."
