After the opera
After the opera by Catherine Abel. Oil on linen.
Marigold - living the life of the Belle Epoque - has returned from a sparkling night at the opera and is now seated in the library, having felt compelled to search for the book she clutches.
Is it the story of the opera she has just witnessed? Is it a collection of poetry she'll inscribe for the handsome gentleman who escorted her? Or does the book contain a deeper secret?
Catherine Abel, 2015.
