Teejo - Miss Prue – Rock’n’Rebel

This contemporary work by Teejo revisits the portrait of Frances Abington as Miss Prue, created in 1771 by Joshua Reynolds. Originally, this painting depicted the beloved actress Frances Abington in the role of Miss Prue, an ingénue and comic heroine from William Congreve's play Love for Love (1695). Once considered an exhibition portrait, it is in fact a private commission imbued with gentle provocation, where the actress poses in an attitude that is both intimate and unsettling for the time.

In this daring reinterpretation, Teejo injects a dose of modernity and rebellion. Miss Prue becomes a rock icon: leather jacket, Pink Floyd T-shirt, confident tattoos, bright lipstick, and a retro hairstyle twisted with a bandana. Even her little dog, a faithful companion, sports a pop style with violet glasses. This humorous and anachronistic subversion challenges classic codes to better connect the pictorial heritage with contemporary audiences.

Between homage and irreverence, Teejo transforms artistic heritage into a mirror of our era, with a touch of derision and a resolutely intergenerational aesthetic.
