Suzanne Valadon: 80 Curated Paintings + 2 Bonus PaintingsSuzanne Valadon was a French painter known for her bold line, unidealised figures, and deeply personal approach to subject matter. Born in 1865, she grew up in Montmartre and began her career as an artist’s model before teaching herself to draw and paint. Encouraged by Edgar Degas, she developed a strong and independent artistic voice. Her paintings focus on the human figure, still life, and interiors. She portrayed the body with honesty rather than idealisation, using firm outlines and solid colour to give her subjects weight and presence. Her work stands apart for its directness, clarity, and refusal to conform to traditional expectations of beauty. Suzanne Valadon: 80 Curated Paintings presents a carefully selected collection of her work, offering a focused view of her distinctive style and artistic legacy.As a celebratory note, this volume marks the Golden Jubilee, the 50th book in the My Private Art Gallery series, and includes 2 bonus paintings specially added to commemorate this milestone!Part of the My Private Art Gallery series, this volume presents Valadon’s paintings with careful digital restoration and a thoughtful gallery style format.
