EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Ruby Melville, a captivating young woman of elegance and charm, is depicted in this exquisite oil painting by renowned Irish artist, William Orpen, circa 1920. The portrait captures Mrs. Melville in the height of fashion, with her fashionably coiffured hair styled in soft waves, framing her delicate features. She wears a striking green dress that accentuates her slender figure and complements her fair complexion. With a playful expression on her face, she casually places her hands on her hips and glances to the left, inviting intrigue and curiosity. This portrait was published in the January 1921 issue of a popular color magazine, Volume 13, adding to its historical significance. Orpen's masterful brushstrokes bring Mrs. Melville to life, capturing the essence of the Roaring Twenties and the spirit of the era. The painting is a testament to the artist's skill and the subject's timeless beauty, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical portraits or art from the early 20th century.
