Fernando Botero
Woman with Lipstick
Private collection. Nor for sale.
This painting is a very well balanced work around a predominant pinkish red background and uses the reflection of the woman in the mirror as a way of depicting the figure from three distinct angles. The viewer may notice the use of the tiny element of the lipstick as a way to balance the colors of the painting through the shoes, the hair ornament and the back wall of the bathroom.
