Original Description
In Maurice Denis’ 1894 masterpiece Après la Procession, the quiet poetry of everyday spirituality unfolds with mesmerizing tranquility. This oil painting, created during Denis’ pivotal Nabi period, epitomizes his famous doctrine that “a picture before being a battle horse...is essentially a flat surface covered with colors assembled in a certain order.” Set against the sun-dappled Breton landscape, three Breton women clad in traditional white caps and dark dresses walk solemnly after a religious procession, their silhouettes rhythmically echoing the vertical trees. Denis’ distinctive style blends Post-Impressionist brushwork with Symbolist sensibility—notice how the flattened perspectives and decorative patterns transform mundane piety into sacred geometry. As one of the key figures bridging Gauguin’s Synthetism and early Modernism, this work exemplifies Denis’ revolutionary approach where emotive color harmonies (the luminous greens and purples) become vehicles for spiritual contemplation rather than mere representation.
Measuring 41 × 33 cm, Après la Procession commands attention through its intimate scale, making it ideal for contemplative spaces like a study or meditation room. Frame it in an unadorned oak floater frame to honor its Arts & Crafts-era origins while creating textural contrast with contemporary furnishings. The painting’s dominant sage greens and lavender undertones pair beautifully with linen upholstery or matte ceramic decor in soft stone hues. Hang it at eye level (145-150cm from the floor) on walls painted in Farrow & Ball’s “Setting Plaster” to intensify its warmth, or against deep charcoal for dramatic emphasis. In corporate settings, position it near curved, organic-shaped furniture to counterbalance its geometric compositions—a perfect bridge between tradition and modernity for creative industries. Its spiritual serenity makes it particularly impactful in wellness spaces, where the rhythmic procession motif subconsciously instills harmony.
