Margot
Oil on paper, 24 x 18 cm.
A bright light shines on Margot's pale face, which remains in shadow, looking thoughtful and melancholic. Her gaze is directed to the lower right, suggesting that she is remembering something from the past. Her delicate, pearly skin reminds me of a pearl that is why she is called Margot.
It is a portrait full of drama and sensitivity. It speaks of regret but also of beauty and hope, as light wins over darkness.
