Description

A striking portrait of a red-haired woman wearing a black dress, painted in profile against a dark teal background. Her pale complexion, auburn hair, and elegant side profile are reminiscent of John Singer Sargent's renowned 'Portrait of Madame X'. Both works employ the side profile format to create a feeling of casual intimacy and contrast between the sitters' pale skin and dark dress and background to accentuate their beauty. Unsigned. On canvas on stretchers.

Condition

The artwork has undergone restorative work, including relining and overpainting. Discolouration and craquelure. Wear around the edges of the canvas.
