Among them, the art print Un portrait d'une femme que l'on pense être Sarah Bernhardt, created by Alfred Stevens, serves as an open window into the fascinating world of theater and feminine beauty. This iconic piece evokes not only a mythical figure of French theater but also a refined aesthetic characteristic of the artist. Gazing at this portrait, the viewer is transported into a universe where emotions blend with the delicacy of features, revealing a psychological depth that transcends mere visual representation.
Style and uniqueness of the work
Alfred Stevens' style is characterized by meticulous attention to detail and a delicate color palette.

The subtle nuances of the skin, enhanced by delicate shadows, give the figure an almost lifelike dimension. The composition, meanwhile, demonstrates exceptional mastery of the classical portrait, while incorporating elements of modernity that reflect the artistic evolutions of his time. The woman's gaze, both thoughtful and captivating, invites the viewer to ponder her thoughts and emotions, thus creating an intimate connection between the work and its admirer. This singularity, a blend of technical virtuosity and psychological depth, makes this art print a centerpiece of 19th-century art.
