1937, Pierre Bonnard, Work Table -- National Gallery of Art (Washington)
From the Phillips exhibition label: The Work Table is remarkable for its experimentation with broad patches of relatively unmodulated color, the gold chair and the blue rug painted flatly, perhaps in homage to Bonnard's good friend Henri Matisse. On a sofa behind the table and its still life of books and papers, a white cat, wide awake beside a sleeping dachshund, surveys the room and scrutinizes the viewer.
