EDITORS COMMENTS
The Mirror, 1900 (1926) captures the essence of a bygone era with its exquisite portrayal of a young British woman. In this portrait, artist William Newenham Montague Orpen skillfully depicts the sitter in an introspective moment as she gazes into her own reflection. The composition is masterfully executed, showcasing the woman seated elegantly with her legs crossed and hands delicately clasped together. Her attire reflects the fashion trends of the time, with a beautiful dress and stylish hat adorning her figure. The vibrant colors used in the painting bring life to every detail, from the intricate patterns on her clothing to the subtle nuances of light and shadow. Orpen's attention to detail is evident in his meticulous rendering of both the subject and her surroundings. The mirror itself becomes a symbolic element within the artwork, representing self-reflection and introspection. Through this device, Orpen invites viewers to contemplate their own inner thoughts while admiring this young lady lost in contemplation. This print from Apollo magazine preserves Orpen's remarkable work for future generations to appreciate. It serves as a testament to his talent as one of Britain's most celebrated artists during his time. With its timeless beauty and evocative atmosphere, 'The Mirror' continues to captivate audiences today.
