About This Piece

Alice Bailly was a Swiss artist from Geneva who spent time working in the Valais, in the Swiss Alps, before moving to Paris and becoming one of the few women in the early Cubist circle. The Mule is a color woodcut from 1906: two riders make their way up a mountain road beneath snow-capped peaks, built from bold, flat areas of yellow, green, and blue-grey. It has the simple, graphic charm of a vintage travel poster.

The yellow, green, and blue-grey palette suits mountain homes, cabins, entryways, and studies. It pairs well with natural wood, wool, and other Alpine or travel prints, and looks great in an oak frame.

About the Artist

Alice Bailly (1872–1938) was a Swiss painter who moved to Paris in 1906 and embedded herself in the avant-garde circle around Juan Gris, Francis Picabia, and Marie Laurencin. She worked across Cubism, Fauvism, and Futurism before inventing something entirely her own. When she returned to Switzerland at the start of World War I, she began making wool paintings, works built from short strands of colored yarn that functioned as brushstrokes. She made about fifty of them between 1913 and 1922. There is nothing else quite like them in the art of that period.
