EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait sketch, titled "Louise," showcases the strength and determination of a woman who defies the societal norms of her time. Dated circa 1919, the image captures Louise with her chin held high, proudly displaying a muscular neck that challenges the traditional feminine ideal. The sketch is a testament to the growing sense of self-confidence and empowerment among women during the early 20th century. The monochrome palette of the sketch adds to the timeless quality of the image, while the intricate details of Louise's features reveal her character and personality. Her piercing gaze and strong jawline convey a sense of resilience and determination, making this portrait a powerful statement of female agency and independence. This evocative sketch was published in the January 1920 issue of a popular women's magazine, Volume 11, and serves as a reminder of the cultural shifts that were taking place during this period. The emergence of the flapper era, with its emphasis on individuality and self-expression, paved the way for women to challenge traditional gender roles and embrace new forms of self-presentation. Louise's portrait is a striking example of the artistic and cultural movements that shaped the early 20th century, and a reminder of the enduring power of art to capture the spirit of the times. This image is part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, and is a valuable resource for scholars, artists, and anyone interested in the history of women's rights and gender roles.
