Peter Engels - Enigma – Original Palette Knife Painting – Unique with Certificate

"Enigma" - Original Palette Knife Painting - Unique, Signed, with Certificate of Authenticity - Artist: Peter Engels (internationally acclaimed portraitist) - Title: Enigma - Medium: Palette knife painting on museum-quality Brussels cotton canvas - Support: Aluminium reinforced frame (ready to hang, no decorative frame required) - Edition: Unique, one-of-one artwork – signed by the artist - Certificate: Includes official Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist – Provenance: Fresh painting, premiered in Antwerp, Featured in a Magazine - Condition: New, excellent – Shipping: Worldwide insured delivery. Paintings ship in a solid wooden crate (recommended) or, for lower cost, canvas can be rolled and sent in a sturdy tube. Enigma is a one-of-a-kind portrait by renowned artist Peter Engels, celebrated for his portraits of Nelson Mandela (shown in Times Square on Mandela's birthday), Brigitte Bardot (with her approval), and Karl Lagerfeld (who called Peter Engels the 'painter of his soul'). Prince Albert of Monaco bought the portrait of his mother Princess Grace Kelly. Richard Branson modelled live for his portrait painting. Painted with his signature palette knife technique, this large sepia-toned work radiates timeless elegance and atmosphere. The scene: a sunlit Italian wall where the model simply “is.” Her hair catches the light, her neckline glows, a jewel shimmers. Yet it is her enigmatic expression that makes this painting unforgettable. Her gaze invites the viewer to look longer and wonder deeper. The restrained palette of sepia and warm neutrals, combined with sculptural strokes of paint, creates depth, emotion, texture, and visual drama. Enigma stands as a collectible and investment-worthy piece in Peter Engels’ legacy. A unique, signed portrait of his mysterious muse, Enigma.
