EDITORS COMMENTS
In this self-portrait by Gwen John, we are transported to the early 20th century and given a glimpse into the artist's introspective world. Created between 1907 and 1909, this black chalk drawing on laid paper showcases John's remarkable talent for capturing emotion through her delicate strokes. The portrait reveals a woman lost in thought, her eyes fixed on an unseen point beyond the frame. The use of black chalk adds depth and intensity to the image, emphasizing the shadows that envelop her face. It is as if she is contemplating something profound or perhaps grappling with inner turmoil. Gwen John was a British artist who lived from 1876 to 1939, and her work often explored themes of solitude and introspection. This self-portrait exemplifies these recurring motifs in her artistry. Quint Lox has expertly captured this print from Liszt Collection, preserving every intricate detail of Gwen John's original masterpiece. As we gaze upon this print, we are invited to contemplate our own emotions and delve into our personal journeys of self-discovery. This print serves as a testament to Gwen John's enduring legacy as one of Britain's most talented artists of her time. It allows us to bring home a piece of history while immersing ourselves in the enigmatic beauty that lies within each stroke of Gwen John's brush or chalk in this case.
