Description:
|
Known for his landscapes, which comprised the bulk of his output, Morrice aspired to be recognized for his portraiture. However, he did not exhibit any (no more than a model study), before 1907. In 1908, he was a jury member for the Salon d’Automne in Paris, along with Matisse. Matisse's influence can be seen in this work, along with Bonnard. For Morrice, Bonnard was the "best man here now--since Gauguin died." (Source: Montreal Museum of Fine Arts; http://www.mmfa.qc.c a/)
