Andrea Torres: Lempicka "Maternite"

Lempicka did this painting in 1928, it is named “Maternité”. These were the years of Lempicka’s greatest success, a large number of rich collectors commissioned portraits - their own, of course, but also that of a wife and daughter for one, or of a mistress, for the other. At the peak of her talent, Lempicka was able to make the most of her feminine models, enhancing their charms with signs of the new spirit of the times. And this painting shows a feminine figure with her baby. Acording to some research she was the wife of a rich men that asked her to paint her wife and his child.  The master piece was made by oil on a wood panel.
