EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print, titled "Portrait of a Woman with Black Hat" was created by the talented British artist Philip William May in 1884/1903. The artwork is housed in the renowned Art Institute of Chicago, where it stands as a testament to May's exceptional skill and his contribution to 19th-century art. The woman depicted in this piece exudes an air of elegance and mystery. Her direct gaze towards the camera draws us into her world, inviting us to unravel her story. Dressed in exquisite clothing that reflects the fashion trends of late Victorian England, she wears a striking black hat that adds an element of sophistication to her ensemble. May's mastery shines through his use of crayon and graphite on tan wove paper. The delicate brushwork and touches of white gouache bring depth and texture to the drawing, enhancing its overall allure. As we admire this portrait, we are transported back in time, gaining insight into both the artistic techniques prevalent during this period and the societal norms surrounding women's fashion. This artwork serves as a window into history—a glimpse at one individual who lived during a transformative era. Philip William May's "Portrait of a Woman with Black Hat" remains an invaluable part of our heritage art collection—an homage to his talent as well as an enduring representation of beauty captured on paper.
