ArtistElla du Cane, Aubrey Beardsley, Erte: There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle . Gold foil
Two vibrant Art Deco paintings are presented side-by-side. On the left, a woman in a black dress with long sleeves sits with her head bowed, her dark hair styled in a bun. Her right hand supports her chin, and her left hand rests on her lap. Her dress drapes around her, forming deep folds on the ground. Behind her, a large, textured golden circle dominates the dark background, partially obscured by the dark, slender, leafless branches of a tree extending towards the top right. A dark, wavy line suggests water or land in the mid-ground. The right painting features a woman with similar hair in an updo, wearing a flowing white and gold dress with sheer, gold-threaded fabric draped over her arms and shoulders. She gazes upwards, her hands raised slightly, as white butterflies flutter around her. A large, radiant golden circle is behind her, emitting golden rays. Below her, on the right side of the painting, a detailed floral arrangement with white and golden flowers and dark green and golden leaves extends from the bottom of the frame. The overall color palette is dominated by rich black and bright gold, with accents of white and dark green.
