A typical day, 30 days to 2 October 2026
The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 377 days, one point a day.
Something wrong?A painter who turned domestic life - bathrooms, breakfast tables, the corner of a room - into color fields so saturated they feel like they're vibrating. Bonnard made the everyday strange by letting pattern and hue swallow the subject whole.

, I should have sent you news of myself long ago, for I know how much pleasure one derives from a letter during one's first days in the regiment.
I work in the mornings and in the afternoons I go to the Latin Quarter. It is a long way from the Batignolles district to the Pantheon: Fortunately there is the Metro.
My first pictures were done by instinct, the others with more method perhaps. Instinct which nourishes method can often be superior to a method which nourishes instinct.

Pierre Bonnard was born in France on 3 October 1867 and helped found Les Nabis, a Post-Impressionist group shaped by Paul Gauguin and Japanese prints, especially Hokusai. His early work leaned decorative and stylized, but he became a bridge between Impressionism and Modernism by letting color and background overtake the nominal subject. He painted landscapes, city scenes, portraits, and intimate domestic interiors where the painting's surface mattered more than what it depicted. He worked as a painter, illustrator, and printmaker until his death on 23 January 1947.
