Tamara de Lempicka (1898–1980) was a Polish-born Art Deco painter known for her bold, glamorous, and stylized portraits of aristocrats, celebrities, and social elites. Her signature style combines Cubist-inspired geometry with smooth, neoclassical elegance, creating an aesthetic that embodies the luxury and modernity of the 1920s and 1930s.

After fleeing the Russian Revolution, Lempicka settled in Paris, where she became a leading figure of the Art Deco movement. Her works are characterized by strong lines, sharp contrasts, and an almost sculptural quality. She often portrayed independent, sensual women, reflecting the changing role of women in the early 20th century.

Her most famous works include 'Portrait of Madame Allan Bott' (1930), 'Young Lady with Gloves' (1930), and 'Self-Portrait in a Green Bugatti' (1929), all of which exemplify her bold and sophisticated approach to portraiture.

Tamara de Lempicka's paintings are among the most sought-after in the Art Deco market, frequently selling for millions of dollars at auctions. Her 'Portrait de Marjorie Ferry' (1932) was sold for $21.2 million at a famous auction house in 2020, marking a record for her work.

Her distinctive style, association with the Roaring Twenties, and enduring influence on modern fashion and design make her paintings highly valuable. Collectors and museums prize her works for their iconic aesthetic, historical significance, and rarity, as she produced a limited number of paintings.

"Femme à la Colombe" (1931) is a striking example of Lempicka’s mastery of portraiture and Art Deco stylization. The work depicts a sensual, golden-haired woman clutching a white dove, symbolizing peace, innocence, and vulnerability.

The subject's face and body are rendered with smooth, sculptural forms, emphasizing symmetry and idealized beauty.

Strong chiaroscuro effects enhance the contrast between light and shadow, giving the subject a luminous, almost statuesque appearance.

The woman’s red lips and nails contrast with her pale skin, enhancing the painting’s seductive and luxurious atmosphere.

The white dove, nestled between the woman’s arms, softens the sensuality of the composition, adding an element of purity and symbolism.

Tamara de Lempicka remains one of the most collectible female artists of the 20th century. Her works, including 'Femme à la Colombe,' are in high demand due to their distinctive aesthetic and cultural impact.
