Product description
This print captures the 1976 “Saddle II” scene in Paris, presenting a monochromatic study of power, fashion, and domestic theatricality. The composition balances the dark silhouette of the piano against the ornate molding of the wall, while the sharp shadows and harsh lighting emphasize the textures of the leather saddle and the delicate stockings.
The image evokes a specific era of European glamour, where the boundaries between commercial fashion and provocative fine art were intentionally blurred. It suggests a story of late-night Paris, blending equestrian motifs with a sophisticated interior setting. Looking at it creates a feeling of being invited into a private, stylized moment that is both mysterious and unapologetically bold, reflecting the artist’s signature approach to feminine strength and luxury.
