Pastel Portrait Of A Young Redheaded Woman With A Black Cat, Dated 1906
Pastel portrait dated 1906, depicting a young redheaded woman holding a black cat in her arms.
The work seduces with its soft, intimate atmosphere, typical of Belle Époque aesthetics, as well as the delicacy of the modeling and the subtlety of the tonalities.
The composition features a young woman with dreamy eyes, treated in a nuanced palette of blues, golds and grays, while the black cat provides expressive contrast and a highly decorative presence.
The vaporous treatment of the pastel enhances the poetry of the whole.
