Our Inspiration: Tiger in the Jungle, from L'Estampe originale, Album I
Paul Ranson (French, 1864–1909)
Lithograph in three colors, 22 7/8 x 16 3/16 in., 1893
Rogers Fund, 1922 22.82.1-7
Paul Ranson was associated with the brotherhood of late 19th-century artists who called themselves the “Nabis,” a Hebrew word meaning “prophets.” Disaffected with the rigidly representational painting methods taught at the Académie Julian in Paris, the group—led by Pierre Bonnard, Maurice Denis, and other like-minded students—embraced ambitious decoration in their paintings, challenging the boundaries that separated fine arts from crafts.
