The Lady with the Unicorn, Raphael (1505-1506). Coloring created from La Dame à la licorne (1505-1506), by Raphaël (1483 - 1520). This work is a youthful portrait by Raphael, emblematic of the Italian Renaissance. The unicorn, symbol of purity and virtue, replaces an initial iconography revealed by restorations (dog, then modified attributes). The work is distinguished by its soft modeling, balanced composition and the obvious influence of Leonardo da Vinci in the treatment of the face and hands.

Boy with a fruit basket (1593) - Caravaggio. Coloring created from the painting Young Man with a Fruit Basket, by Caravaggio (b. 1571 - d. 1610). Painted around 1593-1594, this work depicts a gentle, slightly melancholy-looking young man holding a basket overflowing with ripe fruit, grapes, figs and grape leaves, rendered with remarkable precision. The composition contrasts the freshness of youth with the fragility of life, while the light reveals textures and imperfections with striking realism. This innovative approach is emblematic of the style of Caravaggio, a major figure in Italian Baroque painting.

Bacchus ill (c. 1593-1594) - Caravaggio. This illustration was inspired by Caravaggio, also known as Sick Bacchus. It depicts the god Bacchus as a pale-skinned young man, crowned with vine leaves and holding a bunch of grapes, the symbol of wine and transience. Painted around 1593-1594, this work is often interpreted as a veiled self-portrait of Caravaggio, painted while he was convalescing. The crude realism of the face and the fragility of the body contrast with the traditional idealized iconography of the ancient gods, illustrating Caravaggio's desire to bring the sacred and the human closer together.

The Lute Player (c. 1595-1596) - Caravaggio. Coloiriage created from : The Lute Player (c. 1595-1596), by Caravaggio (1571 - 1610). This work by Caravaggio depicts a young musician absorbed in playing the lute, surrounded by music scores, a violin and a delicately lit bouquet of flowers. The intimate scene is built up by the subtle chiaroscuro characteristic of Caravaggio, highlighting the skin tone, textures and expressiveness of the face. Produced around 1595-1596, this painting illustrates both the artist's technical virtuosity and his taste for musical subjects, blending sensuality, realism and the poetry of the suspended moment.

Lady with an ermine - Leonardo da Vinci (1489-1490). The painting depicts Cecilia Gallerani, a young woman of the Milanese nobility and the mistress of Ludovic Sforza, Duke of Milan.

Las Meninas by Diego Vélasquez, 1656. Coloring version adapted from the masterpiece of Spanish Baroque painting, housed at the Prado Museum in Madrid: Las Meninas (The Maids of Honor) by Diego Velázquez, painted in 1656. The scene takes place in the painter's studio at the Royal Palace: in the center, Infanta Margaret Theresa surrounded by her maids of honor (meninas), court dwarfs, and a dog in the foreground. On the left, Velázquez himself stands before a large canvas. In the background, a mirror reflects King Philip IV and Queen Mariana—the true subjects of the painting. The composition plays with mise en abyme and the gaze, questioning the relationship between painter, model, and viewer.
