Red Veil, 1912
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait captured by the talented artist Alexei von Javlensky. This fine art print, found in the esteemed Thyssen-Bornemisza Collections, showcases Javlensky's mastery of expressionism and his ability to evoke deep emotions through his brushstrokes. In this painting, a young woman is depicted wearing a vibrant red veil that partially obscures her face. The veil symbolizes both beauty and mystery, adding an air of intrigue to the composition. The woman's melancholic gaze hints at gloomy thoughts and loneliness, inviting viewers to contemplate her inner world. Javlensky's use of color is strikingly vivid; he employs bold hues to create a sense of intensity and emotion. The contrast between the bright red veil and the somber background adds depth to the artwork, emphasizing the woman's isolation. This Russian avant-garde piece reflects Javlensky's poetic approach to portraiture. Through his expressive style, he captures not only physical features but also intangible qualities such as tenderness and sadness. "Red Veil" invites us into a realm where beauty intertwines with vulnerability. As we admire this oil-on-cardboard masterpiece from 1912, we are reminded of its historical context as part of degenerate art during that era. Despite being labeled as such by some critics at the time due to its departure from traditional artistic norms, it now stands as an important representation of early expressionism
