Original Description
Bathing in the golden glow of a lakeside afternoon, Bord Du Lac by Swiss artist Maurice Barraud (1889-1954) captures an intimate moment between two women amidst nature’s tranquility. Painted during the interwar period, this work exemplifies Barraud’s signature style blending post-impressionist brushwork with Art Deco elegance—soft yet structured, where dappled light dances on fabric and water alike. The composition’s harmonious balance of curved figures and geometric reflections reveals his training under Ferdinand Hodler, while the muted yet luminous palette nods to Parisian modernism. Though less celebrated than his contemporaries, Barraud’s Bord Du Lac offers a bridge between Symbolism’s poetic subtlety and early modernism’s bold simplicity, making it a fascinating piece for collectors of 1920s-30s European art. The unhurried serenity it embodies reflects a cultural moment when leisure and introspection gained prominence post-WWI.
For decorating, this painting’s meditative quality suits spaces designed for relaxation or creative thinking. Hang it in a bedroom, reading nook, or spa-like bathroom where its aquatic hues (pale blues, creams, and ochres) can harmonize with linen textiles, light wood tones, or matte ceramics. Choose a wall with indirect natural light to mirror the artwork’s gentle luminosity. In offices, pair it with streamlined Art Deco furniture or minimalist shelves to let its lyrical forms stand out—avoid cluttered surroundings. A medium-large frame (60x80cm or similar) ensures visibility without overwhelming smaller rooms. For color accents, introduce sage green or terracotta cushions to echo the landscape’s earthy notes, creating a cohesive, calming atmosphere. Position it at eye level as a focal point to draw viewers into its contemplative world.
