EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Ruth with Green Headcloth, 1927" showcases the artistic brilliance of Walt Kuhn. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures 38.1 x 30.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection. In this close-up quarter-length portrait, we are introduced to Ruth, a contemplative woman from the early twentieth century. With her brown eyes looking away and her head turned slightly to the side, she exudes an air of melancholy and sadness. Her brown hair contrasts beautifully against the green headcloth that adorns her head. Kuhn's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of Ruth's facial features and attire. The floral pattern on her clothing adds a touch of femininity while also symbolizing nature's beauty amidst her heartbreak. Against a black background, Ruth stands out as the sole focus of this piece. The artist masterfully captures Ruth's pensive mood through his use of color and composition. Her somber expression invites viewers into her world as they contemplate alongside her. "Ruth with Green Headcloth" serves as a testament to Kuhn's skill in portraiture during the early 20th century American art scene. This thought-provoking artwork leaves us pondering about human emotions and inner turmoil while appreciating its aesthetic appeal. (Photo © Christies Images) (Image courtesy: Bridgeman Images)
