EDITORS COMMENTS
On the Bridge of Europe," plate nine from Edouard Vuillard's "Landscapes and Interiors" series, created in 1899, is a captivating lithograph that showcases the artist's unique perspective on everyday life. The image depicts two women and a young girl on the Bridge of Europe in Paris, dressed in fashionable clothing of the late 19th century. The mother and daughter are dressed in blue and grey, their outfits a testament to the artistic movement known as the Nabis, which emphasized the use of color and form to express emotion. The lithograph, a color lithotint on grayish ivory china paper, captures the essence of Parisian life with its intricate details and pastel hues. The bridge, with its ornate structure, serves as the perfect backdrop for the scene, which exudes a sense of tranquility and intimacy. The women's clothing, with its intricate patterns and textures, adds to the overall visual appeal of the piece. The image is a reflection of the artistic movement known as Post-Impressionism, which sought to explore new ways of expressing emotion and capturing the essence of a scene. Vuillard's use of color and form in "On the Bridge of Europe" is a prime example of this artistic approach. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this rare and beautiful work in its permanent collection, a testament to the institution's commitment to preserving and sharing the heritage of art. The image invites us to pause and reflect on the simple joys of family and motherhood, transporting us to a bygone era in Parisian history.
