The artwork, “Sur la route d’Anacapri,” was created by Gerda Wegener in 1922 and belongs to the Art Deco movement. It is classified within the genre painting category.
In the artwork, two elegantly dressed women are depicted against a backdrop that suggests an outdoor setting, perhaps near a body of water and mountainous landscape under a dusk sky. The woman on the left wears a vibrant red turban and a matching dress with white accents, exuding a sense of bold confidence. She gazes directly at the viewer with a striking expression. The woman on the right, donned in a delicate pink dress, holds an apple and supports herself on the other’s shoulder, appearing composed and serene. The colors are rich and expressive, with a notable contrast between the bright clothing and the more subdued tones of the background, exemplifying the Art Deco style’s characteristic elegance and stylization.
