"Madame Hessel on the Sofa, 1900" is a painting by the French artist Jean-Édouard Vuillard, a prominent member of 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. Vuillard was particularly known for his intimate, indoor scenes that often featured family members and close acquaintances. This painting is no exception, as it depicts Lucy Hessel, the wife of Vuillard's art dealer and close friend, Jos Hessel.

The artwork is characteristic of Vuillard's style during this period, with a rich tapestry of patterns and textures that blend the figure into the domestic interior. Vuillard's use of muted colors and his intricate play with light and shadow create a sense of warmth and intimacy. The composition is typical of Vuillard's oeuvre, where the boundaries between the subject and the background are softened, emphasizing the harmonious interplay of color and form over clear delineation.

"Madame Hessel on the Sofa" is an exemplar of Vuillard's exploration of the psychological depth of his subjects through their surroundings. The painting captures a moment of quietude and contemplation, inviting viewers to reflect on the interior life of the sitter. Vuillard's work is often noted for its ability to evoke the ambiance of the Belle Époque interior and the private lives of its inhabitants.

The painting is held in high regard for its contribution to the development of interior scene painting in the early 20th century and is frequently studied for its innovative use of pattern and texture to convey mood and character. As with many of Vuillard's paintings, "Madame Hessel on the Sofa" provides insight into the artist's personal relationships and his nuanced observation of the social dynamics of his time.

This work remains an important piece within Vuillard's body of work and continues to be celebrated for its subtle complexity and its evocative portrayal of domestic life at the turn of the century. It is a significant example of the Nabis' impact on the transition from Impressionism to the various expressions of modernism that would follow.
