Paul Loiseau-Rousseau "Riding the Wave" Gilt Bronze Vide-Poche
Aptly titled "Riding the Wave," this striking vide-poche, by Paul Loiseau-Rousseau, features an awing interior look at the chicane of a cresting golden wave. At the base of the wave, and the dish itself, the current breaks, and lifts up, revealing the profile of a woman who appears to be in a dream-like state, despite the aquatic turbulence that surrounds her.
