EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait titled "Girl in Green Reading, 1917" artist Jules Pascin skillfully captures the essence of a young woman engrossed in her reading. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures 89.2x69.2 cm and is housed at The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Pascin's attention to detail shines through as he portrays the girl seated comfortably within an interior setting. Dressed in a vibrant green gown that beautifully contrasts against the muted background, she exudes an air of tranquility and introspection. The artist's ability to capture human emotion is evident in the girl's facial expression – her focused gaze suggests deep concentration while turning each page of her book. It is as if time stands still for this moment, allowing us to witness her immersion into another world through literature. The use of color plays a significant role in creating a harmonious atmosphere within the painting. The lush green tones symbolize growth and renewal while also evoking feelings of serenity and calmness. Jules Pascin was known for his unique style that blended elements from various artistic movements such as Impressionism and Expressionism. With "Girl in Green Reading" he showcases his mastery by capturing not only physical likeness but also conveying a sense of inner contemplation.
