Brassaï, Pierre Bonnard in His Studio at Le Cannet, 1946
"'The main subject is the surface, which has its color, its laws, over and above the objects,' Pierre Bonnard declared in December 1935.

Concentrating on the artist’s later solar work, the splendid exhibition, arranged chronologically, stumbled only with a series of not-uninteresting but nevertheless wince-inducing 'soundscapes,' about which the less said the better. ..."
