Woman In Water - Brigitte Bardot, 2025
A hand-signed acrylic on canvas original by James Francis Gill.
Pop Art pioneer James Francis Gill explores femininity through the shifting, fluid lens of water in this markedly intimate and expressive series.
Inspired by Brigitte Bardot’s role in the 1956 French film ‘And God Created Woman’, Gill paints the star in a pose that captures the tension between innocence and eroticism, naturalness and staging. The sea, deep blue, agitated and alive, frames Bardot in its glistening waves.
Alternating between icon and individual, Bardot has become a cultural symbol for female self-empowerment, refusing to be pigeonholed and reduced to appearance alone. Gill ensures her depth is apparent – mysterious, awake and full of life.
