"Portrait of Nevena Kokanova"
Georgi Lipovanski, 1949
Georgi Lipovanski, 1949, “Portrait of Nevena Kokanova”
Nevena Kokanova is known as the first lady of Bulgarian cinema and her beauty is
inspiring for the artistic guild.
Georgi Lipovanski – former Minister of Culture and MP with an enviable
artistic biography, is also inspired to immortalize her on canvas.
With a simple artistic expression, which is expressed in a clean, airy graphite-gray
background, Kokanova’s figure stands out.
The canvas is worked with oil paint, but the feeling is created that it was built with watercolor,
because of the sfumato effect, which is typical of Lipovanski’s work.
With academic knowledge, using mainly grayscale colors, Lipovanski
builds the volumes of the figure and emphasizes the face and hands of the character,
capturing the grace of the actress Kokanova.
