Swiss artist Ferdinand Hodler depicts a barefoot woman standing, her head bowed left and her dark hair streaming back. She wears a sleeveless gown of deep blue and rust-red that billows around her legs; blue contours and bold outlines sculpt folds and shadows. Both hands rise to her chest with splayed fingers, as if feeling a surge of inner music. The background is a flat ochre field punctuated by red splashes. A greenish cast to her skin and rhythmic lines heighten the feeling of suspended ecstasy. Her bare feet rest on a ledge; the left foot angles outward, stepping forward. The brushed ochre background shows swirls and thin patches as red patches drift upward like loose petals. Hodler, Switzerland’s foremost painter of the fin-de-siècle, reached artistic maturity when he created "Femme en Extase (Woman in Ecstasy)." Rising from a childhood scarred by poverty and loss, he forged a style he called “parallelism,” emphasizing rhythmic repetition, symmetry, and archetypal expression. In the early 1900s, Hodler created a series of monumental figure studies representing human “states of being” like joy, grief, desire, and transcendence. "Femme en Extase" belongs to this body of work, presenting the female form not as portrait but as an emblem of rapture, surrender, and timeless archetype. At this stage, he was celebrated across Europe, embraced by the Vienna and Berlin Secessionists, who admired how he fused realism with symbolism. Hodler’s stylized figures, with their simplified planes and dramatic gestures, anticipated expressionist explorations of inner life and emotional truth. Critics sometimes dismissed his theatricality, but his quest to reveal universal emotions through the human body left a lasting imprint on modern art. His work helped define Swiss national identity while influencing a generation of European modernists who sought to merge the physical and spiritual in painting.

Roman Signer’s Rotes Tuch turns a simple red cloth into a charged gesture—stillness and motion colliding in one suspended moment. It feels like his whole practice distilled: playful, precise, and oddly moving.

Ferdinand Hodler (1853-1918), Les Dents du Midi vues de Champéry, 1916, oil on canvas (photo taken by Guillaume Babey, 2025)
Had a great time at the Ferdinand Holder exhibit at the Museum of Arts and History of Neuchâtel, Switzerland. Truly a beautiful tribute to the Bernese Master's wide ranging influence. #art #finearts #swissart #hodler #museum #switzerland

I saw this picture in Zurich more than thirty years ago. It has remained with me, continually returning to my mind's eye, ever since.

"In Silt of Honfleur, a military flotilla is positioned in the distance in the Bay of Le Havre, ready to intervene. To the left, in the shadows, stands the silhouette of the Honfleur lighthouse, taking on the appearance of a crenellated tower, a paltry defensive architecture facing the immensity of the open sea. The waves created by the ebb and flow echo the undulations of the clouds. The water and the sky are treated in the same shades of yellow and light gray. In the foreground, long black brushstrokes represent the rising surface of the alluvium and the two lines barring the horizon; they prevent any fusion of the elements and contribute to accentuating the oppressive atmosphere. The ships seem stuck like the sediments deposited and anchored over time in the Seine estuary. The calm sea, the cold light, the humid air, and the seemingly frozen state of time cast doubt on an immediate and happy outcome. The wait will still be long." Translation of the French description of the painting on the site of the Lausanne Canton Museum of Fine Arts.
