Imagine stepping into a cherished old room in the late afternoon. The initial burst of pink berries, cherry, and saffron greets you with the excitement of discovery. Deeper inside, the romantic scent of roses, plums, and leather evokes beloved, well-worn furnishings.

DAUGHTER IN A ROCKER

It is a portrayal of a young girl seated in a rocking chair. The painting showcases Sayen’s use of vibrant colors and bold brushstrokes, blending elements of Impressionism and Fauvism. The background features abstract patterns and rich hues, adding depth and contrast to the composition, and highlighting Sayen’s innovative style.
