Painted in 1892 during Maurice Denis’s key period as a leading theorist and painter of Les Nabis, April (Avril) is a mesmerizing example of Post-Impressionist and Symbolist art. Blending genre scene elements with poetic allegory, Denis uses winding paths, graceful figures, and soft, harmonized hues to evoke spring, renewal, and spiritual tranquility. The painting exemplifies his famous conviction that a picture, before being a battle horse or a nude, is essentially a flat surface covered with colors assembled in a certain order.
