Young Woman with Ibis by Puvis de Chavannes – Symbolist Painting Poster Wall Art

“Young Woman with Ibis” by Pierre Puvis de Chavannes is a Symbolist painting featuring a young woman standing against a muted, atmospheric cityscape, possibly evoking a Middle Eastern or North African setting. She is draped in a teal or blue-green robe, and two vibrant scarlet ibis birds flank her. The woman’s expression is contemplative and serene, typical of Puvis de Chavannes’s style. The contrast between the woman’s muted tones and the striking red of the ibises creates a focal point and adds symbolic weight to the composition. The painting evokes a sense of mystery, exoticism, and timelessness.
