EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic Nina Hamnett in all her bohemian glory. Created by Roger Eliot Fry in 1917, this pencil sketch showcases Hamnett's distinctive profile and cropped hair, making it a true testament to her unique style. Nina Hamnett was not only an accomplished Welsh artist but also one of the most renowned bohemians in the English art world during that time. Fry was so captivated by her allure that he painted and drew her on numerous occasions throughout 1917-18. In this particular artwork, we see Hamnett seated comfortably in an armchair, engrossed in a book. The composition exudes an air of relaxation and tranquility as she immerses herself in literature. Her youthful charm is evident, with short hair framing her face beautifully. As part of the Bloomsbury Group, known for their avant-garde ideas and artistic pursuits, Hamnett held a prominent position as the "Queen of Bohemia". This print offers us a glimpse into her world - a study filled with intellectual stimulation and creative energy. The attention to detail captured by Fry is remarkable; every stroke of his pencil brings out the essence of this British celebrity. Whether you are drawn to portraits or have an affinity for bohemian culture, this piece will undoubtedly leave you mesmerized.
