Claude Gaveau's painting depicts two nude women, one with her back turned and the other in profile, against a blue and green background.
Gaveau is internationally renowned for his nude and still-life compositions. His vibrant color palette, like a silk covering, results in a work of subtlety. His art is often described as "symphonic" because the elements of each composition appear perfectly balanced, both ethereal and abstract, lending them a uniquely mysterious and instantly recognizable quality.
