oil on canvas, 1924, reworked by the artist in 1925 and 1927
Sotheby's New York. This well concentrated painting showed Marthe de Méligny (later Marthe Bonnard) seated at a dining table with an unidentified companion in what appeared to be Bonnard's dining room in his Parisian apartment. Bonnard made a substantial play on roundness, beginning with the spherical forms of the two heads which are echoed in the shapes of the two compotiers, and then miniaturized in the fruits which are massed together like glowing balls of colour. Balance was struck between fullness and emptiness while the right hand side of the table was filled like a cornucopia with things to eat, a compotier heaped with peaches and grapes, a fat wedge of chocolate cake, and a plate of four more peaches which put right under the nose of the viewer while on the left the space was emptied out to contain a yellow compotier holding a small bunch of pale green grapes. Bonnard surrounded the banality of evryday life with fabulous margins. The first owner of this work was the writer and critic Felix Fénéon who noted on the painting's stretcher that Bonnard reworked the canvas on two occasions : on June 4th and 5th 1925 and between July and August 1927. It carried an esimate of between US $ 1 and 1,5 million.
