Original artwork description:

Artwork inspired by the "most beautiful woman in the world," Elizabeth Taylor, also known as Liz Taylor (London 1932 - West Hollywood 2011), a British actress with U.S. citizenship considered the last great diva of Hollywood's Golden Age for her acting talents and one of the most singular cinematic beauties. Her portrait is a tribute to all that is now legendary about her: the violet eyes; the three Oscars; that sensuality that established her as the idol of entire generations; the endless list of films she starred in; the torrid, passionate, all-consuming loves; the boundless generosity and strong social commitment; the deep and sincere friendship; the physical suffering and inner turmoil. One of the most famous actresses, one of the most beloved in the history of Hollywood's great stars, undoubtedly one of the most sensitive and refined that cinema has ever had.
