The artwork titled “Portrait of Madame M.” was created by Tamara de Lempicka in 1930. It is an oil painting on canvas that belongs to the Art Deco movement and falls under the genre of portraiture.
The artwork depicts a poised woman draped in a sensuous, flowing gown that is meticulously painted to showcase the artist’s skill in capturing light and texture. The subject’s expression is one of subdued elegance, her gaze directed thoughtfully away. The background features stylized elements, with blue and dark-hued abstract forms which add depth and contrast, enhancing the focus on the central figure. The woman’s sophisticated demeanor is accentuated by the sharp, geometric lines characteristic of the Art Deco style, while the smooth finish of the paint emphasizes the refined beauty that Tamara de Lempicka was renowned for.
