Publisher's Synopsis
Bonnard Among Friends looks at the friendship that Pierre Bonnard enjoyed with a number of other artists--Camoin, Manguin, Matisse, Monet, Rippl-R�nai and Vuillard among them--from the early days of the Nabis group to his later closeness with Matisse. Essays by Marina Ferretti Bocquillon, Isabelle de Navas and V�ronique Serrano offer fresh perspectives on these amicable pictorial exchanges, and are presented alongside the hitherto unpublished letters Bonnard wrote to his longtime friend, the critic and photographer George Besson. Fully illustrated, this catalogue illuminates Bonnard's milieu and its rich artistic vitality.
