About the event
About portraits of the Grand Dukes, Duchess, King and Queen of Lithuania
The cycle of portraits of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania consists of 9 portraits of the Grand Dukes, Duchess, King and Queen of Lithuania. Renata is inspired by the work of the famous artist Pablo Picasso, the so-called blue period, and chooses to depict all the great rulers of Lithuania using almost exclusively the blue palette, also associating it with the royal, blue blood. Shades of steel give you the strength of armor, shades of gold give you the grandeur of a crown, and shades of milk give you an abundance of pearls.
"It is also important to remember the history of our country and its rulers. When visiting abroad, we often visit national or contemporary art museums and see magnificent portraits of the rulers of that country. We read descriptions, photograph works. Unfortunately, in Lithuania we can count such paintings on our fingers. This cycle of portraits of dukes allows the viewer to see the history of Lithuania and the connections between the rulers in a different way." - Renata points out.
