A woodcut print by Félix Vallotton, 'L'alerte' showcases the artist's distinctive style with simplified forms and stark contrasts, influenced by Japanese Ukiyo-e prints and his association with Les Nabis.
Félix Vallotton, a Swiss and French painter, printmaker, and sculptor, created 'L'alerte' in 1896. This woodcut print exemplifies Vallotton's distinctive style, characterised by simplified forms, stark contrasts, and a flattened perspective, drawing inspiration from Japanese Ukiyo-e prints. Vallotton was associated with Les Nabis, a group of Post-Impressionist avant-garde artists who sought to integrate art into everyday life. The print depicts a scene of alarm or warning, with a group of figures on the shore and a flock of swans taking flight. The composition is divided into distinct areas of black and white, creating a striking visual impact. The figures are rendered as silhouettes, their features reduced to essential shapes. The swans, depicted in various stages of flight, add a sense of movement and urgency to the scene. The overall effect is one of tension and unease, reflecting the anxieties of the fin de siècle period.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
