Introduction
In "Nefertiti," Sergei Pietilä evokes the serene yet steadfast nobility of the female figure. The orange-red headscarf symbolizes the ancient Egyptian queen while reflecting the resilient spirit of modern women. The side profile's gaze is calm and determined, naturally becoming the focal point of the painting without the need for dramatic exaggeration. The minimalist background further accentuates the protagonist's confidence and presence; this is not merely a portrait, but a celebration of women that transcends time and culture.
