The Creative Connection Between Villa Flora and the Bonnards, Highlighted in the Cannes Film: Bonnard, Pierre at Marthe

The Hahnloser couple, owners of Villa Flora in Winterthur and its impressive art collection, were not just collectors—they were also close friends of many famous artists, including Pierre and Marthe Bonnard. Their friendship is beautifully captured in the film "Bonnard, Pierre et Marthe" presented at the 76th Cannes Film Festival.
Pierre and Marthe’s life together was a source of inspiration for many of Bonnard’s works, and the Hahnlosers were right there to witness it, sharing a deep love for art and creativity. Villa Flora was more than just a home for their collection; it was an incredibile hub for artistic exchange.

The film "Bonnard, Pierre et Marthe" written and directed by Martin Provost tells the story of Pierre and Marthe’s relationship, shedding light on the love that shaped his art. For fans of Villa Flora, it’s a lovely way to connect with the history behind the collection and the special bond the Hahnlosers had with the artists they admired.
