AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK

Splendid and elegant original oil painting, a fascinating composition entitled "Two Ballerinas at the Bar". The scene, imbued with grace and poetry, depicts two tutus in lilac and purple tones engaged in warm-up exercises at the bar. The artist's style is distinguished by a richly impasto, heavily material brushwork capable of rendering light, movement, and the texture of the fabrics, giving the work a strong, scenically impactful presence and high decorative value.
