Description from the seller
RODRIGUES - The Cavalier's Feather - Mixed media on canvas
Mixed media, acrylic painting · pigment ink · Hand-signed · 2026
A young rider turns toward us, captured in the moment, his clear gaze cast over his shoulder. His large black felt hat is adorned with a sumptuous white ostrich plume, painted stroke by stroke, which falls in a luminous plume into the darkness. Beneath the chestnut curls at the collar, a polished steel gorget catches the light in cold reflections, contrasting with the garnet velvet of the doublet, the worn edges highlighted in gold. The youthful face, modeled in warm light, retains the proud gravity of court portraits from the Grand Siècle. Everything here belongs to the art of the old masters: deep chiaroscuro, the sparkle of metal against the softness of the plume, the nobility of a poised stance seized on the fly. A portrait with flair, between youthful insolence and military splendor.
Technique mixte: acrylic painting on a pigment-ink print, varnish.
Varnish applied by hand, for the depth of the blacks and the lasting protection of the work.
Support: premium canvas stretched on a wooden frame, ready to hang.
Format: 40 × 60 cm.
Signed RODRIGUES · Galerie Labo Joconde / Atelier Joconde · certificate of authenticity provided.
RODRIGUES is one of the creations bringing together artists Le Yack, Neo Pablo and Popsan within Atelier Joconde, a family studio where three sensibilities coexist: neo-realism, pop, and free figuration. Under the name RODRIGUES, the Studio returns to the historicist portrait art and the grand tradition of old masters: chiaroscuro, velvet and brocades, soft light and Renaissance nobility.
RODRIGUES brings together portraits in the masters’ manner, noble figures seized in the shadows, adorned with precious fabrics, illuminated by intimate light. The through-line: a dialogue between the heritage of ancient painting and a contemporary gaze, where the pictorial matter enhances and transfigures the printed image.
Each work is a unique piece.
