EDITORS COMMENTS
Girl with a Cigarette I," an exquisite etching on ivory laid paper by the renowned Swedish artist Anders Leonard Zorn, dates back to the late 19th century. This work of art, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases Zorn's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of a young woman in profile. The monochromatic image, with its striking contrasts of light and shadow, is a testament to Zorn's mastery of the etching technique. The young woman in the portrait is depicted with a cigarette in hand, her expression a mysterious blend of a smile and a hint of contemplation. The image, although simple in composition, is rich in concept and meaning. The cigarette, an unconventional prop for a woman in the late 1800s, adds an element of rebellion and defiance to the portrait. Zorn's "Girl with a Cigarette I" is a prime example of the realist artistic movement that emerged during the 19th century. The artist's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the human form with remarkable accuracy make this etching a standout piece in the annals of Scandinavian art. The image invites the viewer to ponder the woman's story, her thoughts, and her motivations, making it a timeless work of art that continues to captivate and inspire. This evocative print, with its bold lines and intricate details, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, particularly those with a focus on realism and portraiture. The Art Institute of Chicago is proud to preserve and display "Girl with a Cigarette I" as an integral part of its extensive collection of heritage art.
