The Hôtel d'Assézat in Toulouse (France) has a good collection of paintings by Pierre Bonnard. I have placed them in chronological order so that you can see the evolution of his style. Notice how the early paintings have a narrow palette where later he made played with colours and light in a constant research for different harmonies.
