Marianne, muse and mirror Painting

The work is inspired by cinema, based on Céline Sciamma's film Portrait de la jeune fille en feu, 2019. The painting was presented at the Short Film Festival. The portrait takes up the final scene of the film where the main character, Marianne, played by Noémie Merlant, is thinking about her muse. The camera moves towards her, framing her in a composition that echoes the painting in the film. Synopsis: 1770. Marianne is a painter who is to paint the wedding portrait of Héloïse, a young woman who has just left the convent. Héloïse resists her destiny as a wife by refusing to pose. Marianne has to paint her in secret. Introduced to her as a lady-in-waiting, she looks at her. The film makes many allusions to Madame Vigée-Lebrun. It is also an opportunity to evoke the sometimes complex and delicate relationship between a painter and his model. There is often a mirror effect.
