By lamplight she cradles her dead lover’s head while her reflection watches from the mirror — grief and loyalty frozen in gold. Inspired by Alexandre Dumas’ “Queen Margot”, this 1995 oil is an intimate study in profound tenderness and loss. The original painting appears twice (front and back) against a deep violet-blue wrap drawn from the painting’s own midnight shadows — the hush of the tragic room seems to enclose the mug completely.
