Félix Vallotton was a key figure in the Nabis, a group of post-impressionist avant-garde artists in Paris. His woodcuts were revolutionary for the time, stripping away detail to focus on bold, flat planes of black and white ink, a technique that deeply influenced the development of modern graphic design and comic illustration.
