acrylic paint on linen in oak frame 175 x 135 x 13 cm 1996-2000
As I started studying Géricault's children's portraits I soon decided that there was so much information to be found in the clothes, and how he painted these garments very differently for each child, that I decided to study just that. This is Alfred's coat in his portrait with Élise. The sculpted coat, both warm and strong. You can see Élise's dress next ->.
