Description from the seller
Philippe Kerlo is a French photographer and artist known for his powerful, styled portraits and fashion photography. His work operates at the intersection of art, beauty, and visual seduction, often playing with contrast, sensuality, and identity. Kerlo's images are carefully staged and recognizable by their refined use of light, perfect framing, and an almost sculptural approach to the human body.
This work features a highly stylized close-up of a face, with the focus immediately drawn to the intense gaze and the dramatic use of color and gloss. The image is sharply focused, with a soft skin tone that contrasts with the deep red accents. The lips are full and glossy, rendered in a deep Bordeaux red that enhances the sensuality of the presentation.
Dimensions of work with frame: 78 x 78 cm
Dimensions of the work without frame: 50 x 50 cm.
Viewing is, of course, possible. Additionally, we have our own in-house framing workshop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. Furthermore, we collaborate with restorers from the professional organization: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you wish to make use of this service, we would of course be happy to hear from you.
