Beret, 2019

Acrylic on stone panel

43 1/4 x 22 1/2 in 110 x 57 cm

This work presents a female figure rendered in Opie's signature reductive style, distinguished by the titular beret that crowns her simplified portrait. Executed in acrylic on stone panel, the composition employs bold black outlines and minimal flat color fields to distill the human form into its essential elements. The figure's features are pared down to basic curves and lines, yet remain immediately recognizable and engaging. The stone substrate lends substantial presence to the piece, elevating what might appear as digital aesthetic into tangible, tactile reality. Opie has spent decades refining his visual language, transforming portraiture into universal iconography that bridges fine art and popular culture. His works are held in prestigious collections worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art and Tate. This piece exemplifies his masterful ability to capture contemporary life through radically simplified means, making it both an important example of twenty-first-century figuration and an accessible entry point for collectors drawn to his distinctive aesthetic. The intimate scale suits residential or office settings while maintaining commanding visual impact. Available for purchase — enquire for price and availability.
