Admiring Beauty. Guillaume Seignac (French, 1870-1924). Oil on canvas.

A beautiful maiden admires her reflection. Draped in diaphanous fabrics that hug her lush, partially exposed form, this young woman epitomizes the figures typically seen in Seignac’s work. The artist is best known for his allegorical subjects rendered with exacting precision, which he frequently depicted through the idealized female nude in classically inspired settings.
