Unveil a gallery wall that breathes life into the timeless tale of Beauty and the Beast—a story poised between enchantment and sorrow, where love transforms and beauty transcends the limits of form. This curated collection of 14 artworks composes a visual symphony, exploring the delicate tensions between perception and reality, humanity and wilderness, isolation and connection. As the first of two complementary collections, it invites viewers to embark on a journey where two intertwined narratives gradually unfold.
Each piece offers a glimpse into a world shaped by both the beauty and the beast—a mosaic of landscapes, portraits, and still lifes that pulse with unspoken emotion. Rembrandt’s aged woman radiates wisdom shaped by time; Desgoffe’s shimmering crown jewels evoke hidden nobility; Labruzzi’s bold portrait exudes Gaston’s self-assured charm, capturing his arrogance and charisma in every confident line; and Jacquet’s young beauty reflects innocence capable of seeing beyond appearances. The palette whispers in hushed, romantic tones: muted greens of rolling hills, twilight blues, candlelit golds, and deep burgundies that hint at restrained passion and longing.
Designed to immerse its audience, the gallery wall spans 5 feet wide by 4 feet high, showcasing works that range from intimate 5x7-inch frames to commanding 14x11-inch compositions. Each piece is meticulously dry-mounted on archival foam core and protected by UV-resistant acrylic glass, ensuring their preservation for years to come. This is more than an arrangement of art—it is a portal to a world where love is both a curse and a blessing, and where beauty is rediscovered in the most unexpected transformations.
