Hand embellished pigment print on paper in artist's frame // Kehinde Wiley – Sophie Arnould Study II This hand-embellished pigment print from 2016 portrays a male figure gazing upward, evoking a sense of contemplation or transcendence. The subject, dressed in a vivid red hoodie with white lettering, stands out against an ornate blue and white background, which features floral motifs and delicate birds in flight. Wiley’s juxtaposition of classical decorative patterns with contemporary streetwear creates a unique tension, blending historical and modern elements. The rich, polished tones of the skin emphasize the dignity of the subject, a hallmark of Wiley's approach to elevating everyday individuals into positions of power often reserved for European aristocracy in art history.
