Title: The Flirt, 1905 - A Moment of Playful Indifference This image, dated 1905, depicts a coquettish young woman being pursued by a suitor. The artist, anonymous, masterfully captures the essence of flirtatious banter and the intrigue of romantic pursuit in this evocative print. The young woman, dressed in the height of fashion for the early 20th century, turns her head over her shoulder with a playful smirk, her eyes meeting the gaze of the eager suitor behind her. Her delicate hands are poised on the arms of a wrought-iron chair, adding an air of refinement and composure to her flirtatious behavior. The artist, through his skillful use of light and shadow, creates a sense of depth and dimension, drawing the viewer into the scene. The suitor, dressed in formal attire, is shown with a determined expression, his hand reaching out towards the woman as if to take hers. His posture and body language convey a sense of earnestness and sincerity, adding to the tension and intrigue of the moment. This print, from the Peter & Dawn Cope Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a beautiful example of the artistic exploration of love and desire in the early 20th century. The use of muted colors and intricate detailing adds to the overall sense of elegance and sophistication, making it a timeless piece that continues to captivate and inspire.
