Original Description
Paul Sérusier's La Grammaire (1892) immerses viewers in the mystical glow of Synthetism, the avant-garde style he pioneered alongside the Nabis group. This enigmatic portrait of a young woman absorbed in reading evokes tranquility through its flattened forms, cloisonné-like outlines, and radiant color fields—hallmarks of Sérusier’s iconic Breton period. The painting’s symbolic gravitas stems from its creation during transformative encounters with Gauguin in Pont-Aven, where Sérusier distilled nature into chromatic essences on a cigar-box panel (now lost; the work exists as a painted sketch). Though modest in scale, La Grammaire occupies an outsize role in art history as a manifesto of Post-Impressionist abstraction, its spiritual intensity echoing medieval icons while foreshadowing Fauvist color liberation.
When incorporating La Grammaire into interiors, leverage its contemplative energy and chromatic harmony. Ideal for a study or reading nook with subdued natural light, the painting’s ochre and russet tones pair elegantly with walnut bookcases or linen upholstery. Select a frame in gilded oak—nodding to Breton craftsmanship—to enhance its sacral quality. For offices, display it alongside clay-vessel sculptures or framed Japanese woodblock prints to accentuate cross-cultural influences in Nabi art. The modest size (approx. 27 x 21 cm) suits gallery walls; cluster it with smaller Symbolist works maintaining 5-7 cm spacing. Avoid stark white walls—opt for Farrow & Ball’s "Setting Plaster" to mirror the painting’s warm grounding while letting its emerald accents shimmer.
