Painting Description
"Voilà donc pourquoi elle ne sortait pas" (So that's why she wasn't coming out) is a woodcut print by the Swiss/French artist Félix Édouard Vallotton, created in 1894. This work is part of a series of ten interior scenes titled "Intimités" (Intimacies), which depict various moments of romantic and sexual tension in bourgeois settings. Vallotton, known for his clear-cut lines and stark contrasts of light and shadow, was associated with the Nabis, a group of post-impressionist avant-garde artists who set the pace for fine arts and graphic arts in France in the 1890s.
The "Intimités" series, to which "Voilà donc pourquoi elle ne sortait pas" belongs, is considered a pinnacle of Vallotton's printmaking career and reflects his critical and often cynical view of societal norms and the institution of marriage. In this particular print, Vallotton captures a moment of revelation or confrontation, as suggested by the title. The scene is ambiguous, leaving much to the viewer's interpretation, but it is clear that Vallotton is exploring themes of domesticity, privacy, and the complexity of human relationships.
The woodcut is characterized by its use of negative space and the interplay of patterns and textures to create a sense of depth and emotion. Vallotton's technique was innovative for his time, influencing the development of the graphic arts and paving the way for modernist approaches to printmaking.
"Voilà donc pourquoi elle ne sortait pas" is held in various art institutions and has been the subject of scholarly analysis in the context of late 19th-century European art. It remains a significant work for its contribution to the graphic arts and for its incisive social commentary, encapsulating the anxieties and dynamics of the fin de siècle era.
