traditions while remaining unmistakably modern. The painting presents a figure seen from behind, draped in soft folds of cream, pink and lavender fabric, with dark hair gathered neatly beneath a golden headband. The composition is intimate yet dignified, inviting viewers to consider the quiet strength and serenity of the subject.
De Bono’s mastery of light and texture gives Jasmine its captivating presence. The interplay between the glowing fabrics, the smooth contours of the figure and the deep maroon curtain creates a rich visual harmony. Every detail — from the subtle sheen of the cloth to the gentle fall of shadow — reflects the artist’s exceptional technical skill and sensitivity to atmosphere.
Collectors of British art will appreciate how Jasmine blends classical refinement with contemporary minimalism, offering a portrait that feels timeless, graceful and emotionally resonant. It is an ideal choice for anyone seeking artwork that brings poise, beauty and contemplative stillness into their home.
