Jos and Lucie Hessel in the Small Salon, Rue de Rivoli 1905
by Édouard Vuillard
After the Natansons were divorced in 1904, Vuillard shifted his familial attachment from them to the art dealer Jos Hessel and his wife, Lucie, who received the artist every evening at six. The Hessels are seen here in their apartment on the rue de Rivoli, Paris. (Source:
