About the artwork

Yakovlev & Aleeva’s portfolio is characterised by striking, unique images created according to various stylistic influences. By focusing on women’s beauty and glamour, the Russian photography couple photographs their subjects wearing traditional garments to create an intense collection of visuals. Dramatic and seductive, their images combine haute couture and traditionalism to offer a new perspective. Yakovlev & Aleeva photograph classic beauties dressed in silk dresses. Oriented towards the viewer, they remain mysterious and enigmatic. None of the compositional details appear to be chosen by chance. The artist couple’s subjects thus evoke paintings by Dutch masters Jan Vermeer or Pieter Claesz. They illustrate through juxtapositions that they establish with art history and through original and sophisticated stagings.
