Portrait d'enfant Artist: Philippe PasquaYear: 2004Medium: Oil on canvasDimensions: 100 x 81 cmEdition / Authenticity: Unique; inscription on the back of the canvasCondition: ExcellentFraming: Framed Description:In this powerful and visceral work, Philippe Pasqua explores the innocence and fragility of childhood with raw, expressive intensity. The child’s face, rendered in a palette of reds and browns, emerges from the canvas like an apparition, conveying both tenderness and tension. The broad, almost violent brushstrokes reflect the emotional complexity that defines the artist’s portraits. Pasqua, renowned for his uncompromising style and direct approach to portraiture, delivers here a striking piece where flesh becomes paint, and paint becomes a visceral truth. Gold leaf, real butterflies, and a skull — Vanité aux papillons (2005) is one of Philippe Pasqua's most iconic sculptures: a gold-leafed resin skull adorned with real butterflies, presented in its plexiglass display case, where the oldest symbol of mortality is held in a suspended, luminous tension with life itself — available now at Lynart Gallery.
