About the Item

Title French Contemporary Portrait, Side Profile with Textured Hair, Mixed Media Key Details Artist: Beatrice Werlie (French, b. 1974) Medium: Oil and mixed media on canvas Size (canvas): 21.5 x 15 inches Signature: Not visible Provenance: From a private collection, Normandy; artist exhibits with Galerie Artitude, Paris Condition: Painting and canvas in very pleasing condition Description A thoughtful contemporary portrait depicting a female figure in side profile, her eyes closed and hand resting gently against her face. The composition is pared back, allowing the subject to emerge through soft tonal modelling and expressive brushwork. Werlie introduces texture through the use of layered material in the hair, contrasting with the smoother treatment of the face. The palette moves between warm flesh tones, muted blues and ochres, with looser painterly passages framing the figure. This is a piece that lends itself well to quieter spaces, where its calm, introspective quality can be appreciated. It would sit comfortably in a bedroom, study or reading corner, particularly against neutral or softly coloured walls. Its vertical format makes it easy to place, either as a standalone work or as part of a more considered arrangement. There is a subtle confidence in the restraint of the composition. Works like this tend to appeal to those drawn to contemporary figurative painting that balances structure with feeling. It sits easily within a layered interior, offering a more personal and reflective note without overwhelming the space. Artist Note Beatrice Werlie is a contemporary French painter whose work often explores the human figure through a semi-abstract lens. Combining painterly gesture with textural elements, she builds compositions that feel both immediate and considered. She exhibits in Paris and her work is held in private collections across France.
