Description from the seller

In an interior inspired by eighteenth-century aristocratic salons, two richly dressed women exchange a gaze charged with subtlety. Around them, masked characters—metallic faces, mysterious beaks—observe the scene, establishing a theatrical tension.
The refined fabrics, delicate embroidery, and sophisticated headdresses contrast with the enigmatic presence of the masked silhouettes in the background. The composition questions appearances, secret alliances, and social games.
This work reinterprets classical painting through a contemporary approach. The neo-realist treatment elevates textures and light, while introducing a symbolic and almost surreal dimension.
An elegant, narrative, and intriguing piece, ideal for a collection oriented toward revisited historical figurative art.

Characteristics of the work:
Signature: Hand-signed by the artist on the front and on the back of the work.
Technique: Giclée print on canvas, using high-quality pigment printing to faithfully reproduce details and colors.
Edition: Limited to 20 copies, individually numbered.
Dimensions: 40 x 40 cm.
Framing: Delivered ready to be framed, according to your preferences.
Authenticity: Comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
Shipping: Shipped from France, with secure packaging to ensure delivery in perfect condition.

About the artist:
LeYack (born in 1972) is a contemporary artist whose work blends modern narration with pictorial heritage. Drawing inspiration from photography and cinema, he distorts the codes of realism to inject palpable emotional tension. Each work tells a frozen moment, inviting the spectator to immerse themselves in the suggested story.
