One of My Models at Rest
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait sketch by the renowned French caricaturist, Jules Alexandre Grun, featuring a lady in a relaxed pose on a settee. Dated circa 1901, this evocative image showcases the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of his subject with remarkable detail and sensitivity. The lady, identified as a regular model for Grun, is depicted with her hand cupping her jaw, deep in thought or contemplation. Her expression is serene, yet there is an undeniable air of mystery and allure that draws the viewer in. The settee, with its ornate design and plush fabric, provides a luxurious backdrop to the scene, further emphasizing the subject's elegance and refinement. Grun's masterful use of line and shading creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the portrait to life and making the model seem almost tangible. The delicate play of light and shadow on the woman's face and hands adds to the overall sense of intimacy and introspection. This sketch was originally published in the French satirical magazine "Les Maitres de la Caricature" in the June issue of 13, 1901. It is a testament to Grun's ability to capture the human form with both humor and sensitivity, making it a valuable addition to any collection of fine art or historical prints. Whether appreciated for its artistic merit or its historical significance, "One of My Models at Rest" is a timeless work that continues to captivate and inspire.
