The artwork, titled “Rendezvous,” is an illustration created by Gerda Wegener in 1918, and it belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) art movement. The depiction is rendered with a keen sense of style and elegance.
The artwork illustrates a lavishly dressed woman adorned in a flowing pink dress and a white fur stole, set against a deep blue, star-studded night sky. Her red high-heeled shoes add a striking contrast to her monochromatic ensemble. She appears to be walking away, with a sense of motion suggested by the curvature of her dress. The woman is observed holding a thoughtful, subtle expression, gazing downward. A small, animated white dog with expressive eyes and a bushy tail stands attentively at the base of a column, contributing a playful element to the scene. The background features a grand, ornately decorated column and lush foliage, indicative of an upscale garden setting. This composition embodies the elegance and opulence characteristic of the Art Nouveau period, with its emphasis on flowing lines and decorative detail.
