Description from the seller

About the work

In the softness of a veiled light, Venus seems to awaken from an ancient dream. Languid on satin fabrics, she appears between shadow and light, in that suspended moment where dream yields slowly to consciousness.
The pearls that surround her neck and adorn her brow recall the sea foam from which, according to myth, the goddess was born. The red stones and the golds bring precious flashes to her whiteness, while the delicate lace seems to extend around her the motion of a wave.
Her gaze, already awakened but still distant, lends the scene its mystery. It is not only the awakening of a woman, but the symbolic awakening of beauty and desire. GYL thus composes a timeless Venus, sensual and sovereign, as if returned from the world of dreams to appear for an instant before the observer.
