Palimpsest is an original painting by Sophie Dumont, created in 2025 using oil on linen canvas. Part of her iconic Libraries series, the work transforms books into a silent architecture, arranged in three rows. The very dark palette combines black, midnight blue, anthracite gray, and a few earthy tones. The books gradually emerge into the light thanks to the textures and variations in material created with a palette knife. This dense and meditative composition evokes memory, time, and the traces left by knowledge. A unique, signed work, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
