Bonnard was a French painter and printmaker and a founding member of the “Les Nabis”. His early art works were exhibited at the Societe des Artistes Independants”.

Pierre Bonnard's first show was at Galerie Durand Ruel in 1896. Les Nabis was a group committed to symbolism and spirituality. Bonnard used colors intensively. His complex compositions were sunlit interiors of rooms and gardens with friends and family members, and were narrative and autobiographical in style.

Pierre Bonnard painted his wife nude in the bathtub, or in the kitchen. Bonnard made several self portraits, landscapes and still life-mainly flowers and fruit. The picture for his paintings he derived from his drawings of the subject, sometimes from their photographs. He made notes on the color schemes and painted the canvas as per his notes.

Pierre Bonnard's well known paintings were INDOLENCE (1899), MAN AND WOMAN (1900), and his triptych THE MEDITERRANEAN (1911). His last painting was THE ALMOND TREE IN FLOWER.
