married life roger de la fresnaye

married life roger de la fresnayeRendered in a cubist approach, this De la Fresnaye painting features a man and a woman, who are husband and wife and who, at first glance, have been together for some time. Together but at the same time separated. The man is wearing a suit and smoking a cigarette. Sitting on a chair next to him, the woman is completely naked, her eyes closed. The room is cluttered, surely to reflect the state of their married life. And yet, there is order, harmony.

The geometric shapes are filled with bright

with paintings such as Eiger

She has an inviting posture in a teeming vegetation

creating a bright and dynamic atmosphere

But what strikes at first are the bright colors that will invade the space of the table

but a source of inspiration for the soul

of silence

all as varied in their themes as in the techniques employed

When Vincent Van Gogh arrived in Paris for the first time

The whole is underlined by a multitude of tones that express the variation of emotions and feelings

The Aleppo pines peacefully overlook the red roofs of the houses that line the beach

This painting offers a unique insight into Van Gogh's daily life and work space
