Julia Ruf
Portrait of a Girl “Iiris”

2024

About the Item

The painting embodies a deep connection between humanity and nature. The woman seems to personify the iris, highlighting that humans are part of nature and that the beauty of the natural world is reflected in us. In her hand, the flower becomes a symbol of fleeting beauty, hope, and awakening. The iris is often associated with spring and dreams that are ready to bloom if given the time and space. The flower is not just an accessory, but a reflection of her essence—delicate, enigmatic, and full of life. The painting invites contemplation on the unity of nature and humanity, the beauty that lives in every moment, and dreams that can come to life.
