Mientras tanto, en la vida de Balthus
La vida entera1940
Flees the invasion for Savoy
When German forces invade France in 1940, Balthus and his wife Antoinette flee to Savoy, to a farm in Champrovent near Aix-les-Bains.
1940s
Turns from Surrealism to a manner of his own
By the early 1940s Balthus has finally left the principles of Surrealism behind; his attention is drawn to the theme of awakening femininity, and symbolic motifs — a mirror, a butterfly, a cat — and adolescent girls in domestic settings begin to appear in his canvases.
1942
Escapes occupied France for Switzerland
In 1942 Balthus escapes from occupied France to Switzerland, first to Bern.
