Studio with Mimosa




Another post in The Ekphrastic Review, this a small bit on Bonnard's luminous conflagration Studio with Mimosa, from my still unpublished novel Nude Against the Light.

We got to see this painting again in London in March, at the Tate exhibition of Bonnard's work, and I had the awful impression that it has faded since I saw it first in France in 2000.  I hope I'm wrong, that it was a trick of the light.
