Georges LepapeArt Nouveau Woman on Beach in Green Dress Romantic Story "Le Retour"1916
1916
About the Item
In this painting, Art Nouveau French illustrator Georges Lepape depicts a high moment of personal drama. He exquisitely renders a beautiful yet solitary woman sitting on the beach. She is dressed in a patterned green dress. He captures the precise moment when she's see her male friend semi-silhouette with outstretched arms as he breaks over the hilltop. "I'm back" he gestures. The artist deftly establishes a line of sight between the two distant figures.
