Le Yack - Le Palais d'Ondine - Hand-signed

A bourgeois living room completely submerged. The parquet floor, the dresser, the golden méridienne, the frames on the wall, the small-paned window, the curtains — everything is in place, and everything is under water. In the center, a young woman in a red dress stands barefoot, holding her skirt outstretched with one arm. From the ceiling, two schools of fish cross: red on the left, gold on the right. This is not a drowning, it’s an invitation. At Aloysius Bertrand, Ondine invites the sleeper to come rule over her palace at the bottom of the lake; here the palace is a XIXth-century interior and the dance has already begun. The red of the dress, the only warm mass in the canvas, stands up to all the blue — it’s this point of tension that prevents the scene from tipping into a soft dream. The water is built from overlapping blue sails, enhanced by dry whites for the bubbles and the beams of light; the dress is the tour de force, gathered in thick pleats where the red shifts from carmine to garnet in the hollows; the furniture, darker and smoother, acts as ballast to the composition and anchors the bottom of the painting.
