The Square
1917-18
Vuillard captures a quiet, leafy Parisian square, likely the Place Vintimille near his studio, where he spent much of his later life. The yellow façade of the building is almost swallowed by the lush, dappled greenery, creating a sense of intimate enclosure that was a hallmark of his style. Figures relax on benches in the foreground, seemingly oblivious to the viewer, adding to the peaceful, everyday atmosphere of this Post-Impressionist gem. Painted around 1917-1918, it reflects his fascination with domestic and neighborhood scenes, turning a simple street corner into a vibrant tapestry of light and color.
