Four Ribbons

“Vier Linten” (1978) is an intriguing and symbolic portrait in which a woman with an intense, penetrating gaze is central. Her face is framed by four graceful ribbons, of which the outer ribbon creates a heart shape. This shape can symbolize love, protection or an inner strength. The elegant, crossed hands enhance the symmetrical and almost hypnotic composition. The combination of dark, warm and silver tones gives the work a mystical, timeless appearance.
