The young woman in this neoclassical inspired portrait is imagined with wings. The wings can represent a number of things, from freedom to spirituality.   Furthermore, tension is created by combining elements that are painted realistically with the illusion of depth and elements that are flat or decorative. Like yin and yang, these two different ideas combine into a unified whole. The background features a gradient of blue tones interspersed with rectangular shapes, creating a vibrant yet serene setting that makes the central figure stand out prominently.

The painting is a reworking of a 19th c. neoclassical work by artist Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres.
