About this artwork

Artist John Kelly displays a realistic portrait of a woman in a flowing robe. He explores light filtering into the Parisian courtyard in the 15th arrondissement near his home. Golden sunlight illuminates the cool dark shades and lights the sheer garment worn by the model, the surrealistic filmmaker Faustine Reve. Using a burst of oranges, reds, and yellows, John creates tension with the restrained background, building a dreamlike scene filled with drama and emotion.
