Description

Audrey Flack’s Greek Muse composition is centered around a classical marble bust showing idealized beauty, reflected in the adjacent mirror. An artist’s palette is seen in the background referencing the hand of the artist, while strings of pearls and a single red rose can be seen as traditional elements of femininity, which Flack often challenged in her work.
