** Slicks: those visually arresting, moving patches of smooth water

A painting by Holder showing Lake Geneva and the Alps of Savoy an evening of 1895 from an elevated viewpoint. Colours are intense and the handling of the forms is synthetic and ornamental. The big blue mass of the lake, which asserts the main harmony, is contained within the contour of a broad, clearly drawn ellipse. The upper horizontal band contains the suggestion of a melody, with the staccato of the clouds reflected in the water. Hodler replaces the fleeting character of impressionist painting with a rhythmic organisation capable of revealing the timeless order of nature.
