EDITORS COMMENTS
Cicely Draws My Portrait," a captivating pastel sketch from circa 1919, showcases an intriguing moment of artistic exchange between two individuals. In this image, a young girl intently focuses on her drawing, skillfully capturing the likeness of the artist herself. The artist, likely named Cicely, gazes back at the girl with a thoughtful expression, perhaps reflecting on the unique experience of being the subject and observer in this creative interaction. The use of pastels adds a delicate and expressive quality to the artwork, with the soft, vibrant colors bringing both the girl and the artist to life. The girl's portrait of Cicely is a work in progress, with visible lines and shading indicating the thought and care she is putting into her creation. The scene is set in what appears to be a cozy, well-lit room, with a stack of magazines and a volume of "The Magazine of Art" visible in the background, suggesting a dedication to artistic pursuits. This pastel sketch is part of the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, known as the "March of the Women" collection. While the exact identity of the artist and subject remains a mystery, the image offers a glimpse into the world of artistic collaboration and the shared creative process between two individuals. The image is a testament to the power of art to bring people together and inspire creativity in one another. The use of pastels, the intimate setting, and the dynamic interplay between the artist and the subject make "Cicely Draws My Portrait" a timeless and evocative work of art that continues to captivate viewers over a century after it was created.
