La Rossa
1912-13
Paul Sérusier captures a hauntingly serene profile of a golden-haired woman in 'La Rousse,' a title that cheekily translates to 'The Redhead.' Painted around 1912, this piece showcases his Post-Impressionist roots with its bold, flat planes of color and moody, textured blue background that makes her warm, amber tones truly pop. As a key member of the Nabis group, Sérusier often sought to express emotion through color rather than strict realism, giving this portrait a dreamy, almost melancholic atmosphere that feels both intimate and distant.
