Art Déco Queen: Tamara de Lempicka
The Baroness with a Brush
For the remainder of the month, we’ll be focussing on some of our most beloved artists. I can’t think of a better way to begin than with the Déco Diva, Tamara de Lempicka. Her body of work, and style are often described as “soft, and synthetic cubism”.

Her techniques were clean, precise, and elegant. In truth, Tamara de Lempicka’s art work mirrored the woman with the brush: independent, assertive, elegant, and precise. To say that she was a unique individual for her time is an understatement. She personafied the term avant garde. Today, her work is collected by high profile celebrities like Barbara Streisand, Jack Nicholson, and Madonna. On November 20th, her famous Musician portrait was sold for 30,000 €, when the gavel hits the rostrum at Drouot-Richelieu, Paris.
