Dancers III is a textured ballet wall art print by Paola Minekov. Building a geometric composition on a representational theme gives the painting a strongly modernist feel.
Free-form facets echo the diagonals of the dancers' limbs, and the whole work is painted in gradations of violet and blue. Lighter accents in the costumes open out into orange and green skin tones that glow against the darker setting. The energy comes from the centre, where a curled-up figure seems about to unroll.
The rich violets and blues make this a striking piece for a bedroom or living room, and a lovely gift for a dancer or ballet lover.
