Brigitte Bardot with Saint-Tropez sun hat

Once again Peter Engels created a unique painted portrait of Brigitte Bardot in her early years. Harmonious, refined and balanced with a perfect golden ratio. The artwork is bursting with light. After all, Peter Engels is the master of chiaroscuro. You can tell by the sunlight on the hands and shoulders. Notice the subtle rays of the sun shining through the sun hat, and lighting up her cheek. This painting, created with the knife, is contemporary art that builds on classical painting where pure beauty and skill were important. Where correct proportions in anatomy make the beauty. All the time was taken to make this painting. Peter Engels let the viewer watch as he made this beautiful piece of art. On the seawall in Knokke (Belgium) he put the finishing touches to the canvas and is exhibiting it in the famous NeverGiveUp art gallery.

This painting It is of course a unique and a one-off piece of art. Painted with the pallet knife on the best Brussels cotton. 100 x 120 cm.
