Description:
Marie Antoinette's Cakes (2024) is a hand-signed color screenprint by Genieve Figgis, renowned for her dramatic and darkly humorous style. Her work channels the intensity of Anglo-Irish literature—from the gloom of Poe to the wit of Oscar Wilde—while drawing inspiration from old masters like Goya.

In this piece, bourgeois homes, traditional portraits, and landscapes are imbued with spectral presences and luminous figures wearing tall hats and carrying canes. The blend of seemingly banal realism with dreamlike elements creates a distinctive macabre charm, characteristic of Figgis’ unique artistic vision.
