Description: Created in 1967, this Portrait of Jeanne Moreau is a work by the French painter Robert Lapoujade, a prominent figure in post-war figurative art. An engaged artist, close to the French avant-garde, Lapoujade developed a painting style in which expressionism, texture, and the deconstruction of the image convey existential and political tensions.

In this portrait of the legendary actress Jeanne Moreau, muse of French cinema and an icon of the Nouvelle Vague, Lapoujade deploys a vibrant pictorial language: layering, doubling, and erasing of features reflect an exploration of identity and perception. The face, both present and elusive, expresses the full ambiguity of an inner gaze and a public icon.

This unique painting represents a rare piece within Lapoujade’s oeuvre, at the crossroads of psychological portraiture and the pictorial experimentation of the 1960s.
