Le Président turns Daniel de Polignac’s interest in authority into paint. Working the psychology of the present, he builds direct canvases around power and the patterns of human behavior; here he resists literal portraiture, presenting leadership as an emotional and symbolic condition rather than a specific individual.

The work is acrylic on canvas, structured with assertive mark-making, crisp edges, and decisive contrast. The surface carries control and tension, reading power as pressure rather than pose. Its upright 150 × 70 cm format gives the piece a strong vertical presence while the composition stays balanced and restrained, so it holds a wall without tipping into overstatement.
