Vuillard’s subject of Parisians enjoying refreshments out-of-doors is echoed in his friend Bonnard’s Café Terrace, on view nearby. Both artists treat public settings with the same enveloping closeness of their interiors. In 1897, Vuillard purchased a Kodak Brownie that allowed him to take intimate snapshots of family and friends as well as create reference photographs for his paintings and prints.
