Original Description
Maurice Barraud’s Nu à l’éventail (Nude with a Fan) is a striking Art Deco-era painting that embodies the elegance and sensuality of early 20th-century modernism. The composition features a reclining female nude, draped in flowing fabrics while holding an exquisite fan—a symbol of both sophistication and femininity. Barraud, a Swiss painter associated with the Nouvelle Objectivité (New Objectivity) movement, masterfully blends realism with stylized forms, creating a sense of intimacy and refinement. The warm, muted tones and soft contours evoke a dreamlike atmosphere, while the precise detailing in the fan and fabrics showcases his technical prowess. Painted in the 1920s–1930s, the work reflects the era’s fascination with exoticism and decorative luxury, bridging traditional portraiture and avant-garde aesthetics. Though less widely known than his contemporaries like Tamara de Lempicka, Barraud’s Nu à l’éventail remains a captivating example of interwar European art, celebrated for its harmonious balance of realism and decorative allure.
For interior styling, Nu à l’éventail would elevate a bedroom, lounge, or sophisticated office space. Its intimate scale (typically under 100 cm wide) suits a focal wall above a console table or a canopy bed, where its muted palette complements neutral or rich jewel-toned backdrops. Pair it with sleek Art Deco furnishings—think lacquered wood, mirrored surfaces, or velvet upholstery—to enhance its vintage glamour. Opt for warm brass or matte black frames to harmonize with the painting’s golden undertones. In a minimalist setting, let it anchor the space as a singular statement, while in eclectic interiors, it can dialogue with oriental rugs or metallic accents. Avoid overcrowding; the artwork’s delicate eroticism demands breathing room. Lighting is key—soft, directional illumination will amplify its textured details without overwhelming the subtlety of Barraud’s brushwork.
