Queen of Hearts, inspired by playing cards, 2022

A refined and romantic interpretation of the Queen of Hearts image in the form of a young lady's portrait. The composition is executed as a playing card with the suit's characteristic attributes.

In the foreground, delicate roses bloom, and behind them appears the image of a girl in exquisite medieval clothing. With one hand she holds a crimson rose - a symbol of love and passion.

The harmonious combination of red, white and blue, soft facial features and a dreamy gaze create the image of a romantic beauty as if from an ancient painting. Yet a deep inner world can also be glimpsed in it. A subtle work skillfully combining the symbolism of a playing card and a portrait in old masters' style.
