Inspired by Jacques Le Moyne’s 1585 watercolor, this painting reimagines a Pictish woman adorned with floral motifs featuring anachronistic plants. A decorative background evokes period tapestries, blurring the line between historical representation and fantasy.

acrylic on canvas

After “A Young Daughter of the Picts” by Jacques Le Moyne (1585)" is a painting inspired by a small watercolor. The name Picts is thought to come from the Latin Picti, meaning “the painted ones”, although evidence of extensive body tattooing remains uncertain. The floral patterns covering the young woman include plants that had only recently been introduced to Europe, creating a historical anachronism that also informed a pseudo-scientific illustration by Theodor de Bry three years later. The background draws on decorative tapestries from the same period, reinforcing the sense that the woman’s portrayal is as fanciful and ornamental as the patterns surrounding her.
