...that he painted oftenest (see following pages). Her presence borrowed color from the walls of her bath. While fauvism, cubism, even dadaism and surrealism bypassed Bonnard, he kept his eye on nature and his wife's place in it. To many, through the 1930s and 1940s, Bonnard was oldfashioned, a man preoccupied with outer nature rather than inner psychology.
