In 1959, Bernard Buffet dominated the visual design of the cabaret Le Patron, which was performed by the famous actress Zizi Jeanmaire and Roland Petit, and showed at the theatre Sarah Bernhardt in Paris. This early work of Buffet, Femme nue et papillon-Zizi, is a drawing inspired by Zizi Jeanmaire. The naked female figure is the only focus of the central vision, and the four limbs stretch out extremely forceful, just like the confident and brilliant look of Zizi on the stage. The delicate black lines are painted stroke by stroke, and the butterfly wings are just like colorful gemstones glistening with abundant colors. This painting is not only full of the characteristics of Buffet’s 1950s style, but also a treasure that is full of stories and records the classic era of the artist.
