The painting above, by Nikolai Bird, is of the legendary actress, Audrey Hepburn. Audrey won an Academy Award for Best Actress, for her role as Princess Ann in Roman Holiday. She is also well known for her role as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

In this painting, I really like the use of such an unexpected shade of red. The red really brings out Audrey’s striking features and it goes well with her pale skin.
