Turned towards the horizon, La sagesse (Wisdom) evokes calm and a forward momentum: a serene figure guided by light. Final panel of La quête de spiritualité.

Like all of Modka’s portraits on a gold ground, the work draws on Byzantine art, which the artist studied in art history at the Sorbonne: gold becomes sacred light, and blue the presence of the soul.
