38-VICTORIAN AND CELTIC BEAUTY

One thing I loved most about the Pre-Raphaelite paintings were the women depicted in them. A type of beauty that now seems to have disappeared. Those looks, that pride mixed with melancholy, that makes you feel, when you look at them, like a knight lost in a distant and impossible love. Well, all this now seems to have vanished and the woman made goddess by this way of representation remains only in those paintings. I absolutely wanted to create this collection to also add a tribute on my part to all the women who don’t know that they are always goddesses and queens, and who are so without knowing it. It would be enough if they looked through the same filter that animates my mind and my hand in drawing them.
