History, Analysis and Treatment of LA SALLE A MANGER AU CHATEAU DE CLAYES, 1938, by Edouard Vuillard |
 | | Edouard Vuillard was born in France in 1868, and did not seriously apply himself to painting and drawing until the age of 19 when influenced by friendships made at school with Ker-Xavier Roussel and Maurice Denis, both later recognized as artists in their own right. |
| | Vuillard's embrace of this philosophy is evident in the many large decorative panels painted over his career with expansive areas of flat, matte color, cropped compositions, altered perspective and unusual color relationships. |
| | Vuillard is also often referred to as an "Intimist" for the frequency with which he depicted family interiors and local scenes. |
