The Piece
Thirty-six by forty-eight inches — the largest format Allibe works in, and the one where her method has the most room to argue. The subject is Isabela Krüger, born in Argentina to a German father and an Argentinian mother, carrying what the artist calls the duality of two worlds: European structural resolve against a Latin American heartbeat. Allibe paints that split rather than resolving it.
The surface is built in layers and then opened back up — scraped passages, colour buried and reopened, the emerald note that gives the work its name held against a warm ground. The face is left deliberately unfinished. At this scale the unresolved passages are not a detail you notice on approach; they are the first thing the picture does from across a room.
History & Provenance
Kat Allibe is a French-born contemporary painter working in Reno, Nevada, and the originator of Emotional Impressionism. She painted privately for over thirty years — more than 150 works, almost none of them sold — before entering formal study at the Milan Art Institute in 2025.
Viridian Eclection is her private dealer. This painting comes directly from the studio, with a certificate of authenticity issued and signed by the artist.

Why It Belongs in Your Home
This is a commission-scale painting without the commission wait. Four feet of canvas will hold a double-height wall, a long dining room, or the single elevation an open plan is built around — the places where most collections run out of anything large enough to be serious.
Available for private viewing at The Morris Hotel Building, Reno. Trade and design enquiries welcome.
Every piece is packed with professional-grade materials: multiple foam layers, double-boxing, directional and fragile handling labels. For large furniture we use custom timber crating. We photograph packing before dispatch and can provide images on request.
White-glove delivery is complimentary within 100 miles of Reno, NV. National shipping quotes provided at checkout. All shipments are photographed and documented. Damage claims must be filed with the carrier; we provide all documentation needed to support your claim.
Local pickup is available at Viridian HQ (Reno, NV) with 2–4 days notice. Contact us to arrange. Private viewings also available.
All antique and vintage items are sold as described and all sales are final. Each listing includes detailed condition notes and photographs so you can make a fully informed decision. We encourage buyers to ask questions — about condition, dimensions, finish, provenance — before purchasing.
Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
