The Lady With A Lute
The Lady With A Lute is one of my absolute favorite paintings by Dewing - because of the richness of color and the pose. It's such a strong background that appears to be dropping into a black hole and there she is - color perfect and shining luminously.
The colors in Dewings' paintings are usually tonal (since he was a tonalist, hehe) and this one is a little tiny bit different because of the background. My favorite ones by him are in the Freer of the ghost-like women floating around in fields. I love the textures also.
I didn't know one was stolen! Thanks Cynthia!
