ABOUT ‘THE VEILED VESTAL’
Inspired by ‘The Veiled Vestal’ sculpture, by Raffaelle Monti, and known for it’s appearance in the 2005 Pride and Prejudice film, I wanted to use my own trompe l’oeil painting skills to reflect the statues own illusion of transparency. Using oils, I began to sculpt the statue, establishing the lights and shadows. Slowly building up the layers, more details were added in order to successfully convey the intricacies of the statue. To enhance the trompe l’oeil effect, a wood grain background was painted along with the addition of brass pins to create the illusion of an image being pinned up.
