Pierre Bonnard

Artist, French, 1867 - 1947

The image shows an abstract sketch of fragmented lines and shapes resembling a human figure with raised arms. The lines converge to create the impression of a figure engaged in a common gesture. The incomplete style allows for an abstract interpretation of a standing figure with minimal details.
