Red Parasol Child
EDITORS COMMENTS
(circa 1918) This pastel painting, created in 1918, showcases a tender moment between a mother and her young child. The portrait, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, presents a woman dressed in a richly colored purple gown, her countenance radiating warmth and love. She cradles a red parasol in her hand, an intriguing object that catches the curiosity of her child, who stands beside her, gazing up at the parasol with fascination. The parasol, an accessory commonly used during the early 20th century to shield oneself from the sun, adds an element of allure and mystery to the scene. The vibrant red hue of the parasol contrasts beautifully with the mother's regal purple attire, creating a striking visual harmony. The painting, with its soft pastel tones and delicate brushstrokes, exudes an air of tranquility and intimacy. The use of color is masterful, with the rich purple of the mother's dress and the bold red of the parasol drawing the viewer's eye and evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. The magazine volume, with its title and date visible, adds context to the image, placing it within the July issue of an unspecified publication from 1918. The inclusion of this detail further enhances the historical significance of the painting and adds to its overall charm. This exquisite pastel work, with its timeless beauty and evocative imagery, is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture and preserve the essence of a moment in time.
