Carnival (Wegener)

Dive into the excitement of the carnival with this bold and colorful composition. Gerda Wegener depicts a crowd of costumed characters: a harlequin with a black mask embracing a woman with a red heart-shaped headdress, a black-skinned dancer dancing with a masked blonde woman, and other mysterious figures in the background. The geometric patterns – diamonds, hearts, stripes – saturate the space, creating a dizzying visual rhythm typical of Art Deco. The white dress in the foreground, adorned with falling red hearts, is particularly remarkable. The work captures the libertine, festive and slightly decadent atmosphere of the great masquerade balls of the time, where identities blur and desires are released.
