专家说明

This relatively early work by Christopher Wood was painted in 1924, when he was living and working in Paris. In Mother and Child Wood demonstrates the influence of both the Fauves artists, Henri Matisse and André Derain, and the pointillist style of Seurat, upon his work. In the present painting Wood has observed the complimentary juxtaposition of the blue and orange pigments to enliven the composition, and this is indicative of his instinctive understanding of colour and harmony.
