EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil on canvas painting titled "A Lady at Breakfast or Le Dejeuner de Marie" artist William Nicholson transports us to an elegant Edwardian breakfast scene. The artwork, measuring 91.5x86.3 cm, showcases a beautiful brunette woman seated at a table adorned with fine china and delicate silverware. The lady's dark hair cascades in ringlets around her face, adding to her allure as she delicately holds a cup in one hand and a spoon in the other. Her gaze is fixed upon the steaming beverage before her, perhaps coffee or tea, inviting us to imagine its rich aroma and comforting warmth. Nicholson masterfully captures the essence of quiet indulgence as the woman savors her morning ritual. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the composition while highlighting intricate details such as the glimmering ring on her finger. This exquisite painting from 1911 exudes timeless elegance and invites viewers into an intimate moment of contemplation and relaxation. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our busy lives, taking time for oneself can be both nourishing and rejuvenating. Displayed here courtesy of Desmond Banks' private collection, this artwork is not only visually stunning but also offers us a glimpse into bygone eras where simple pleasures like enjoying breakfast were cherished moments worth immortalizing on canvas.
