About the piece
Created in 1912 by Belgian modernist Léon Spilliaert, this evocative work depicts five young girls from an unusual perspective, emphasizing the rhythmic repetition of their long hair, white bows, and striking white stockings. The use of pastel and colored pencil creates a rich, matte texture that brings a contemporary feel to this early 20th-century composition.
