Henriette Bravo-Demaria, member of the association "L'Icône" of Paris, studied iconographic art at the Beaux-Arts of Cannes and Paris. Fascinated by Russian iconography, the artist creates them with the greatest respect for the Byzantine tradition and shows an interest and a real attention to detail, from the support, in wood, selected and worked by hand, to the painting technique, known as "tempera". Demaria herself carries out the gilding and the work of copper or silver inserts setting her works.
Numerous distinctions such as the 1st Grand Prix " Prestige de l'Art " of the city of Nice, the silver medal of the city of Paris or the medal of merit of the city of Rome, testify to the meticulous work of the artist and a passion that has led her to exhibit in Florida and to join many private collections around the world.
