The American Set Tips

The Decade-Long Art Brotherhood Collectors Still Chase

· 1 min read

Les Nabis burned out in less than ten years, yet its imprint on Western art has outlasted the group by more than a century. The circle took its early cues from Paul Gauguin and from Japanese woodblock printmaking, folding both influences into a shared visual language. For a movement that came and went so quickly, its reach keeps surfacing wherever serious Post-Impressionist work changes hands.

With reporting from The Collector.
