Description from the seller
Antoine STEVENS (born in 1987)
Makeda, 2018
Technique: Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 180 x 150 cm
Year: 2018
Unique original work
A magnificent monumental work by Antoine Stevens, “Makeda” showcases the full power of his figurative style and the richness of his artistic world.
Against a deep black background stands the majestic profile of an African woman, whose face, adornments, and hair are rendered in remarkable detail.
Golden hues, textures, and material effects give this composition a striking presence. The contrast between the fine portrait and the freedom of the painterly drips gives the work an unmistakably contemporary dimension.
At an exceptional size of 180 x 150 cm, this canvas is a true centerpiece, particularly spectacular in a large space.
A sublime, powerful, and elegant work that exemplifies Antoine Stevens’s talent.
