This illustration is a vibrant pop art-style portrait of Marisa Berenson as she appeared in Stanley Kubrick’s 1975 period drama Barry Lyndon. Rendered in bold geometric shapes and vivid colors, the artwork captures the elegance and emotional depth of her character, Lady Lyndon.
Berenson’s delicate features are stylized with angular blocks of saturated color—warm oranges, deep purples, electric blues, and soft pinks—giving the piece a modern, expressive edge. Her eyes, shaded with rich purples and framed by bold lashes, suggest both beauty and quiet melancholy. A signature beauty mark adorns her face, and her lips are tinted in deep coral, conveying a sense of refined glamour.

She wears a wide-brimmed hat adorned with abstract floral patterns, a nod to the ornate costuming of the 18th-century setting in Barry Lyndon. The composition emphasizes her grace and restraint, while the vibrant palette modernizes her timeless screen presence.

This illustration pays tribute to both Berenson’s performance and Kubrick’s visually meticulous film, fusing classical elegance with contemporary pop art energy.
