Sax Berlin
"Lady". Contemporary Figurative Oil Painting

2010

About the Item

This piece from Berlin's studio dates back to 2003 but has only now been released. She's an a la mode young woman from the halcyon days of the Belle Epoque; confident and bewitching but a little melancholic. Inhabiting this world she must have rubbed shoulders with the great impressionists in Paris salons, happy in the company of Toulouse-Lautrec and Modigliani. Berlin has such a wide range of styles each unique and idiosyncratic. This is Berlins Parisienne style at its best; contemporary, delicate, strong and textual. Hand ground pigments and crushed marble.

    A masterwork from a master artist,White Gold Lilies for the Dove of Peace is an immaculate piece, pure colours balanced with earthy hues imbue the work with shades of sumptuous richness seldom found outside the great collections.
