1898 CE

Pierre Bonnard, thirty-one in 1898, has become one of the leading members of the Nabis, a group of artists who specialize in painting intimate domestic scenes as well as decorative curvilinear compositions akin to those produced by painters of the contemporary Art Nouveau movement.

Bonnard's pictures of charming interiors lighted by oil lamps, nudes on voluptuous beds, and Montmartre scenes make him a recorder of the gaudy and extravagant era known retrospectively in France as la belle époque ("the good old days").
