Blond and Blue Eyed Ballerina in Tutu against Chinese Screen
-
Description
Prolific Saturday Evening Post Cover Illustrator Pearl L. Hill Worthington paints a stunning portrait of a Ballerina in a tutu with underlighting. She sits on a decorative Chinese stool with a Chinese screen behind her. The painting is composed of simple broad areas of color that complement each other. Pearl L. Hill Worthington's painting technique expresses quick yet self-assured brushstrokes. Even though the captivating subject is sitting, the circular shape of the tutu interacts with the red and green bands of color. It creates a composition with a sense of dynamic movement. Finally, the painting expresses youthful joy and happiness. This is a delightful work by a trailblazing and overlooked female artist who, at the time, was working for one of the nation's most important national publications. Signed lower right and signed with the address on the back stretcher bars. Exhibition plaque on verso. The painting came from the estate of the artist who lived in Coral Gables, Florida.
