EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of the artist's grandmother in 1887, as painted by Emile Bernard. The solemn and stern expression on her face reveals a depth of character and wisdom that comes with age. The post-impressionist style employed by Bernard adds an intriguing touch to this elderly woman's portrayal. The artist skillfully depicts his grandmother through bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors, creating a sense of vibrancy despite her advanced years. The painting measures 54.9x44.4 cm, allowing for intricate details to be captured on canvas. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness the strength and resilience embodied by this matriarchal figure. Her weathered features tell a story of a life well-lived, filled with both joyous moments and hardships overcome. This intimate portrayal serves as a testament to the bond between grandchild and grandparent – an enduring connection that transcends time itself. It is evident that the artist held great admiration for his grandmother, capturing not only her physical appearance but also her inner spirit. Now part of a private collection, this painting continues to inspire awe and reverence for generations past. Its presence reminds us of our own lineage and the profound impact our ancestors have had on shaping who we are today.
