Did you know?
Félix Vallotton was a key figure in the Nabis group and became famous for his stark, black-and-white woodcuts that revolutionized printmaking at the turn of the 20th century. His works like 'La vitrine de Lalique' captured the bustle of Parisian life with a distinctively modern, graphic sensibility that stripped away detail in favor of powerful, flat patterns of shadow and light.
