Mademoiselle Coco in Black Stockings / Mademoiselle Coco avec Bas Noirs
Seated on a low ottoman, wearing a red jacket with her matching accessories, red bracelet and red and black high heels, she adjusts her black stockings and time stands still.
We catch Mademoiselle Coco mid-act, falling into a contemplative moment.
We ask ourselves, who is she? , where is she? , is she dressing? , or undressing?
The artist captures the enigmatic atmosphere in this quiet yet provoking painting.
This painting was presented as gift by Salinas in 1985 to his dealer, publisher and friend: Colette LeShufy, she was also nicknamed: Coco.
For the sophisticated collector this makes an intriguing pair with “Suzette Adjustante Ses Bas”.
