Carrière, EugèneFrança, 1849–1906Será possível contemplá-la?
Cleveland, Estados Unidos
Pertence à coleção, mas de momento não está exposta.
Associated with the 19th-century Symbolist movement in France, Carrière developed a distinctive, almost monochromatic palette suggesting a dream world. The limited color in this portrait of his friend, the deaf painter Armand Berton, also focuses attention on the psychology of the sitter. Translucent glazes make Berton's face emerge from the shadows. Engulfed in silence, Berton seems to rely on his other senses to perceive the world around him.
