EDITORS COMMENTS
La Maquillage" is a captivating portrait painting by the renowned Swiss artist Jean-Édouard Vuillard, created circa 1919. The artwork depicts an elegant woman in the intimacy of her dressing room, engrossed in the art of applying her makeup. The mirror reflects her image, as she meticulously selects and applies various shades and textures of color to her face. The scene is set against an intricately patterned wallpaper, which adds a sense of depth and texture to the composition. A volume of a magazine, dated July 10, lies open on a table nearby, suggesting that the woman may be seeking inspiration or guidance from its pages. Her dressing room is adorned with an array of makeup equipment, including brushes, compacts, and powders, all neatly arranged and ready for use. The woman's expression is focused and intent, her gaze fixed on the mirror as she carefully applies each stroke. The painting captures the quiet, almost meditative moment of self-care and transformation, as the woman prepares to present herself to the world. The use of soft, muted colors and delicate brushwork imbues the painting with a sense of intimacy and introspection, making it a beautiful and timeless representation of the art of beauty and self-presentation. "La Maquillage" is a testament to Vuillard's exceptional skill as a painter and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time. This work of art invites us to reflect on the importance of self-care and the transformative power of makeup, while also showcasing the beauty and elegance of the early 20th century.
