Azure 

"Azure" is a realistic oil painting by contemporary artist Adrian Gottlieb. The portrait depicts a woman with a striking resemblance to the Italian Renaissance style of portraiture. The subject's gaze is directed to the left, creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. Her delicate features are accentuated by the soft lighting and the rich, saturated colors of the painting. The woman's attire, a simple white dress with a floral design, and a blue ribbon tied around her head, adds a sense of elegance and sophistication. The background is a muted red, creating a sense of depth and contrast. This piece is a testament to Gottlieb's mastery of realism and his ability to capture the beauty of the human form.
