Félix Vallotton was a key figure in the Nabis, an artist group that emphasized decorative style and flat, simplified forms. This specific print showcases his mastery of the woodcut medium, which he revived during the 1890s to create striking, modern images defined by bold, negative space and dramatic light effects.
