Iris Brosch
Girl with Swans for Greek Vogue - Lake View, Fine Art Photography 2004

2004

About the Item

Girl standing on a lake with swans photographed by Iris Brosch. All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. This mesmerizing image by Iris Brosch exudes an ethereal, almost mythical quality, blending elements of fashion, nature, and classical art to create a dreamlike composition. A woman dressed in a flowing, Grecian-inspired gown stands delicately in the shallow waters of a reflective lake. The soft pink fabric clings to her form, and a deep red sash around her waist adds a touch of contrast and elegance. Her pose is both poised and slightly off-balance, as if she is caught between movement and stillness. The delicate placement of her hands near her face suggests introspection, fragility, or a moment of quiet transformation. The presence of the two swans gliding serenely beside her adds a layer of symbolism. Swans are often associated with grace, purity, and transformation, evoking myths such as Leda and the Swan or the story of the ugly duckling turning into a majestic creature. Their smooth reflections on the water mirror the woman's own presence, reinforcing a sense of harmony between human and nature. The setting—a lush, green lakeside enveloped by deep foliage—further enhances the image’s classical and fairytale-like atmosphere. The crisp blue sky and stillness of the water create a feeling of tranquility, while the woman’s modern footwear, slightly submerged, introduces a surreal contrast between the contemporary and the timeless. Brosch’s work often reinterprets classical themes through a feminist and contemporary lens, and this image is no exception. The composition evokes paintings of goddesses or nymphs, yet the model’s strong, statuesque presence challenges the traditional passive representation of women in such scenes. Instead, she stands as both an observer and an integral part of the landscape, embodying both vulnerability and quiet strength. The German artist, photographer, and director Iris Brosch, is known internationally for restoring dignity and strength to the image of women in fashion photography. Brosch’s unique celebration of sensuality moves in fresh and fascinating directions in her ability to rework timeless classicism with a thoroughly modern twist. The work of Iris Brosch is and isn’t anything we have seen before. It is Raphaelian. It is Modern. It is mystical and ethereal, anchored by the weight of a powerful mind.

Price for UNFRAMED item The Robin Rice Gallery proudly announces SUMMERTIME Salon 2018, an annual photography exhibit featuring gallery artists as well as a few newcomers. This year’s opening reception will be held on Wednesday, June 27th from 6 – 8 PM, and the show will be on view until September 23rd, 2018 Rice has brought together the works of 55 gallery artists and nearly a hundred photographs for this salon-style exhibition. From floor to ceiling, the walls of the gallery are a mosaic of various size photographs in sepia, color and black & white, expertly hung to fit together like pieces of a puzzle. “This is my favorite exhibition even though it takes months to curate and a week to install,” says Rice. “I love the moment when a viewer is first drawn to an image. Sometimes in’s indefinable; a moment when the viewer not only shares but reconnects to an experience remembered.” Each year, the Summertime Salon matures and Rice’s annual masterpiece is revealed to showcase an exhibition stronger than the year before. Rice has a close relationship with the works of her photographers, and strategically curates the show to best exemplify the artists’ strengths, remaining cohesively linked by Rice’s aesthetic. This year’s invitational image, Hoop and Ball by Nenad Samuilo Amodaj is from a series of one hundred photographs. Rice chose three photographs from Amodaj’s series to create a triptych on the back wall of her gallery for this exhibition. The invitational image is of a standing semi-nude woman in profile wearing a hoop skirt. Her entire head rests inside of a large white plaster ball that she holds above her. He explained: “I wanted to explore the abstract architectural properties of the hoop skirt, a clothing item with curious geometric form that appears both in nature and in the world of artifice.” Before photographing the model he created numerous figure drawings that helped solidify his vision for the series. Male nude...
