Le violon is a woodcut made in 1896 by Félix Vallotton. The title points to the violin as its subject. Vallotton was a Swiss and French painter and printmaker, linked with the Nabis, and he played an important part in the development of the modern woodcut. Across his work he favoured an unemotional, realistic manner, and that restraint is a good way into a print like this one, where the subject is allowed to speak plainly.
On your wall: Its spare woodcut character suits studies, music corners, hallways and calm living rooms, especially where a restrained, minimalist look is wanted.
