Emile Bellet (French, 1941-1922): Pleine Floraison, 2002. Serilithograph in color on paper. Signed in plate, unframed.

Emile Bellet's paintings are notorious for the mysterious female he included in his compositions. His wife, his daughter, and musings on an idyllic kind of woman were all sources of his inspiration. The familiar female figure used throughout his work is symbolic of his impression of femininity. She represents all women and, for this reason, has no facial expression. She is timeless, ageless, and universal.
