The artwork presented here is a fascinating and captivating composition, depicting stylized birds in an abstract environment. The painting is distinguished by its bold and harmonious use of colors and shapes. The birds, probably peacocks, are rendered with an elegance and graphic simplicity that enhance the visual impact of the work. The bodies of the birds are stylized with deep blue and gold hues, contrasting with the softer, pastel background. Their tails, long and elegant, unfurl in fluid arabesques, adding a sense of dynamic movement to the scene. The technique used for the feathers almost seems to highlight a textile texture, evoking a feeling of lightness and grace. The abstract background, composed of geometric shapes and circular patterns, envelops the birds in a serene and slightly surreal atmosphere. The horizontal bands of color and touches of green and pastel blue create a chromatic harmony that highlights the main subjects of the work. A particularly striking detail is the juxtaposition of the organic forms of the birds with the geometric shapes of the background, creating an interesting visual tension. The artist demonstrates a certain mastery of balance and composition, inviting the viewer to explore each section of the work with renewed interest. In short, this work is a perfect example of how a mixture of graphic simplicity and complexity of color and form can result in a representation that is both calming and intriguing. The boldness of the choice of colors and the fineness of the details make this painting a unique and memorable piece.

Presentation
Henri Samouilov is an artist born in Paris in 1930. He lived most of his life in Yerres in a house and studio that he designed himself, dividing his work between drawing, painting and sculpture. He first trained in illustration and advertising drawing and then took evening classes at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Montparnasse.
His artistic production does not fit into a particular movement or current. Far from conventions, commercial demands or fashions of the time, Henri Samouilov's work is endowed with an uncommon intensity. Full of humanity and altruism, his work is not light and carefree but melancholic, mysterious and sometimes even anxious.
"We could attribute talent to him, but he deserves better than this banality. An uncommon force, a humanity that touches us in each of his works allow us to affirm that Henri Samouilov is a painter worthy of the name, a visionary, a seer in the sense that Arthur Rimbaud understood it."
Philippe Soupault – Co-founder of Surrealism (1963)
His imagination is nourished by the landscapes that are part of his daily life and by a very rich inner world. Thus, through his gaze, the most banal urban scenes gain in poetry and mystery, we also find the imprint of surrealism. As for rural landscapes, they border on the boundaries of reality. Henri Samouilov thus delivers labyrinthine and sinuous compositions that are the fruit of his most secret inner journeys.
Being very reserved by nature, communication and promotion around his work were not his priority. He did not like being the center of attention and preferred the shadows to the light.
Henri Samouilov remained outside the official paths all his life. Protected from the demands of the market and fashion, his work remained deeply personal. Without seeking to please or sell, in a total and honest truth, he left behind him an immensely touching, inventive and profound artistic production.
