Jean-Pierre Cassigneul's works, influenced by post-impressionist artists such as Édouard Vuillard and Pierre Bonnard, are distinguished by a unique style. Cassigneul depicts women with slender silhouettes and remarkable elegance, recognizable by consistent features despite their varied outfits. It is often assumed that the woman depicted is the same, a muse dear to the artist.

Jean-Pierre Cassigneul's originality lies in the way he integrates his figures into changing environments. Landscapes in the background evolve with the passage of time and seasonal variations, creating a dynamic atmosphere. His ability to capture temporality and fuse traditional influences with a contemporary aesthetic captivates the viewer.
