"Sleep" (French: "Sommeil"), created around 1891 by the French painter Jean-Édouard Vuillard, is a notable work from his early career, reflecting the intimate and domestic themes that would characterize much of his oeuvre. Vuillard, a key member of the post-impressionist group Les Nabis, was deeply influenced by the movement's ethos, focusing on the emotional and symbolic content of his works. "Sleep" exemplifies Vuillard's interest in capturing the quiet, private moments of everyday life, often featuring the interior spaces and the people close to him.

The painting, executed in oil on canvas, is remarkable for its use of pattern, texture, and color to evoke mood and atmosphere. Vuillard's technique, characterized by a rich, intricate layering of patterns, blurs the boundaries between the figures and their surroundings, creating a sense of immersion and introspection. This approach reflects the Nabis' belief in the spiritual and emotional power of art, as well as their interest in Japanese prints and the decorative arts, which influenced their use of flat planes of color and intricate patterns.

"Sleep" portrays a figure, likely a woman, reclining in a dimly lit room, enveloped by the soft, comforting patterns of the domestic interior. The subject's pose and the subdued palette suggest a moment of quietude and repose, inviting the viewer into a contemplative space. Through this work, Vuillard conveys the profound beauty and tranquility found in the mundane aspects of daily life, a theme that would remain central throughout his career.

The painting is part of Vuillard's broader exploration of the psychological depth of interior spaces and their inhabitants. By focusing on the intimate moments hidden from the public eye, Vuillard sought to reveal the emotional richness of the ordinary, making "Sleep" a quintessential example of his artistic vision and contribution to post-impressionism. Today, the work is celebrated for its delicate balance of form, color, and emotion, encapsulating the essence of Vuillard's early artistic endeavors and his lifelong fascination with the inner lives of individuals and their environments.
