About this artwork

I wanted to explore an allegorical theme here using a Commedia del arte presentation. The character, Gilles, is usually portrayed in white - here I have chosen black. I have also decided to portray this traditionally male character as a female in this piece. The distinctly modern treatment of the face is juxtaposed with the Carravagesque treatment of the paint and the costume.This painting is on a gallery wrapped canvas with finished black edges. It comes varnished and ready to hang.
