Girl with Gloves 1929

"Girl with Gloves" (1929) by Tamara de Lempicka is an iconic example of Art Deco painting. The painting's stylized forms, bold colors, and geometric composition are characteristic of the Art Deco movement. De Lempicka's signature style, which emphasizes geometric shapes and smooth, almost metallic surfaces, can be seen in the woman's figure and the green drapery, contrasting with the crisp white of her hat and gloves. The figure’s poised pose and elegant attire evoke the glamour of the 1920s, a period of social and cultural change that greatly influenced de Lempicka's work. The painting is currently housed at the Georges Pompidou Center in Paris, France.
