"The painting is 80x80 cm in size and painted with acrylic and oil paints on canvas. We see a beautiful girl in a summer dress and a kokoshnik, which are real Russian national clothes. The summer dress is decorated with a decorative braid and buttons. The girl is wearing red beads, she looks at her pet with love and tenderness, and it is clear that the cat really likes it. The background of the painting is made abstractly with broad strokes. It is surprising that our imagination shows a Russian stove...

"First words to two women" by Gilbert Pauli - Oil on canvas
By Gilbert Pauli
Located in Geneva, CH
Born in 1944 in the canton of Fribourg, Gilbert Pauli currently lives in Geneva, where he devotes himself to painting and sculpture, a passion he developed from his childhood. His favorite theme is the dialogue between the human being and his creator.
Gilbert Pauli's messages are universal, without any racial, religious or even cultural reference, with the sole purpose of love for man.
From 1986, he worked relentlessly and in a self-taught way to discover the different painting and sculpture techniques: first gouache, followed by dry pastel. These lead him to watercolor, and oil, through charcoal and acrylic.
He died in Geneva in 2020 and the Gijsel Gallery...
