"Queen of Hearts – Portrait of Lili" is a painting by Danish artist Gerda Wegener. It depicts a woman, likely the artist's wife, Lili Elbe, in a glamorous pose, holding a cigarette and a playing card. The scene is set in a domestic interior, with a newspaper and scattered playing cards in the foreground. The painting, created during Wegener's career, is a striking example of her signature Art Deco style. The bold colors, geometric shapes, and stylized features contribute to the portrait's elegant and somewhat provocative aura. This work embodies the glamour and sophistication of the 1920s.
