“The Precious Stones” series depicted women personified as four precious stones. In each panel, the upper part of the composition is dominated by the female figure, while the lower part features a flower whose color echoed that of the gemstone. The color scheme of each panel - including the flowing robes, the hair decorations, the mosaic halos and even the colour of the woman’s eyes – recalls the color of the stone.
