The Triumph, plate two from Intimacies, 1898
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating black and white drawing by the renowned Swiss artist Félix Vallotton. This antique artwork is a testament to the artistic movement known as Les Nabis, which emerged in France during the late 19th century as a reaction against Impressionism. Vallotton's masterpiece is a powerful depiction of a couple in a tense and emotional moment, captured in the intimate setting of their indoor space. In this scene, a disdainful man stands over a distraught woman, who is crying uncontrollably. The man's expression is cold and detached, while the woman's anguished face is etched with pain and despair. The couple's bodies are contorted in a way that suggests a struggle, adding to the sense of turmoil and conflict. The drawing is part of Vallotton's series "Intimacies," which was originally published in the French literary magazine La Revue Blanche. The series was a satirical commentary on romantic relationships and the complex emotions they elicit. Vallotton's use of stark contrasts and bold lines adds to the graphic and illustrative quality of the artwork, making it a standout piece from the 19th century. The Triumph is now part of the permanent collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to be exhibited for visitors to appreciate the rich cultural heritage of this historic artwork. The drawing is a poignant reminder of the complexities of human emotions and relationships, and a testament to Vallotton's artistic vision and skill. Whether you're an art aficionado, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of black and white graphics, The Triumph is a must-see artwork that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
