Portrait of Lett Haines, 1927
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Frances Hodgkins that captures the essence of a moment in time. The portrait depicts Lett Haines, a lifelong friend and companion of Cedric Morris, who visited Hodgkins while she was holidaying in France. In this intimate portrayal, Lett Haines is shown seated on a chair with his eyes closed, seemingly lost in peaceful slumber. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring out the delicate details of his clothing - summer clothes elegantly draped over his form - as well as the subtle play of light and shadow through the window behind him. Hodgkins' choice to depict her subject asleep adds an air of tranquility to the composition. It invites viewers to contemplate themes of restfulness and introspection. The close-up view allows us to appreciate every nuance: from Lett's tired expression to the meticulous rendering of his attire. The painting showcases Hodgkins' mastery in capturing human emotion and atmosphere through her use of color and texture. Her ability to convey both physical likeness and psychological depth makes this artwork truly remarkable. This print serves as a testament not only to Frances Hodgkins' artistic talent but also to her personal relationships with those around her. It offers us a glimpse into an intimate moment shared between friends during their time together in Brittany.
