Inspiration: This small circular work depicts a stylized Nativity scene: the Virgin Mary, dressed in a blue cloak, stands next to Joseph, draped in red, near the swaddled baby Jesus. A sheep completes the composition, a symbol of innocence and devotion. The naïve style, with simple contours and bold colours, evokes popular traditions and intimate spirituality.The whole is set in a round carved wooden frame, decorated with plant motifs in relief — leaves and volutes — reminiscent of Baroque ornaments. This contrast between the sobriety of the painting and the richness of the setting gives the work a charm that is both rustic and sacred.

Corinne Tichadou
France
Corinne Tichadou is a female painter working and living in Beziers, Southern France. Her painting is contemporary, figurative, mythological, biblical, allegorical and contemplative. It weaves links between the past and the present. Through mythology, tales, theatre, opera, biblical stories and her love for Italian Renaissance painting, she seeks timelessness as a philosophy. She paints the human being and questions it about its relationship to the world: to love, to family, to its courage, to its destiny, to its place in society.
