Playing in the Sun (Jeux au soleil), 1893
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Felix Vallotton captures a serene moment of leisure and joy amidst the rising sun. This exquisite woodcut print, created in the late 19th century, showcases Vallotton's mastery of monochrome and light. In this artwork, we see a group of women basking in the warm rays of sunlight at dawn. The sepia tones lend an air of nostalgia to the scene, evoking a sense of timelessness. As their silhouettes are beautifully illuminated by the golden hues, it becomes evident that they are enjoying themselves in nature's embrace. Vallotton's attention to detail is remarkable as he depicts each woman with delicate precision. Their graceful postures and flowing garments create a harmonious composition against the backdrop of water and trees. The playfulness exuded by these bathers reflects their carefree spirit as they revel in both physical and spiritual rejuvenation. This artwork not only celebrates feminine beauty but also explores our connection with nature and its life-giving force – the sun. Through his skillful use of woodcut technique, Vallotton creates intricate patterns that mimic rays of light cascading onto his subjects. As we gaze upon "Playing in the Sun" we are transported back to a simpler time when people found solace and happiness through simple pleasures like bathing under sunlight. It serves as a reminder for us to appreciate life's small joys while embracing our natural surroundings. Displayed proudly at National Gallery of Art Washington
