Terracotta and Black Profile Painting with Green Leaves - Neck Bent Without Face - Marguerite Edition

The visual

The work features a female silhouette in profile, treated with terracotta blocks with a textured rust and warm brown hue. The deep background, almost anthracite black, accentuates the relief of the figure and highlights the warmth of the illustrated skin. Two large white daisies with golden hearts punctuate the composition, one near the face, the other at the level of the shoulders. Sage green leaves frame the scene, bringing an organic breath to the whole. The light seems to filter diagonally, creating brighter areas on the neck and face. The graphic style, almost cut-out, evokes a contemporary illustration blending figuration and abstraction. The whole exudes an atmosphere of vegetal calm, between shadow and light.
