About this artwork

L'averse is a woodcut made by Félix Vallotton in 1894. The title points to a sudden shower of rain, and the work is part of his printmaking, a field in which he played an important role in the development of the modern woodcut. Vallotton was a Swiss and French artist linked to the Nabis, and he is known for an unemotional, realistic approach across his subjects. Here, that restraint suits a print built on the plain contrast of a woodcut.

On your wall: Its simple, graphic character suits minimalist interiors, such as a hallway, study or quiet living room where a single considered piece can stand alone.

About Félix Vallotton

Félix Vallotton was a Swiss and French painter and printmaker, linked with the group of artists known as Les Nabis. He played an important part in the development of the modern woodcut. His paintings include portraits, landscapes, nudes and still lifes, all handled in a calm, realistic style that keeps emotion at a distance.
