L’Énigme de Lilou, (The Enigma of Lilou), is an evocative oil painting that captures the haunting beauty of a mysterious female clown. Lilou, with her long, cascading curls of auburn-red hair, sits poised against a dark brown background, her pale, painted face illuminated by a soft, moody light. Her black-lined eyes, both wistful and unreadable, hint at secrets hidden beneath the mask of a performer.

The play of shadows and dimly glowing highlights evoke the feeling of an old, forgotten portrait, one that lingers somewhere between the theatrical and the spectral. "L’Énigme de Lilou" is more than a painting; it is a riddle wrapped in nostalgia, offering a glimpse into the unseen world of the painted smile.
