These series of illustrations were made in collaboration with the artist’s brother-in-law, Claude Terrasse, a pianist and composer. Bonnard’s illustrations for Petites Scènes familières are full of whimsy and humor, but also have a more serious side; some suggest reverie, melancholy, and even nightmares. wall description: --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS Bonnard, Pierre, Colta Feller Ives, Helen Emery Giambruni, and Sasha M.
