Tamara de Lempicka, Polish by origin, immersed herself in Art Deco portrait and nude painting, working mainly in France and the U.S.A. A master of refined cubism and neoclassicism, her skillful brushwork and controlled geometry celebrated the human form with a sensual yet precise allure. Her works exude a glamorous tension, capturing the opulence and desire of the early 20th century's high society.
