EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pastel on grey paper artwork titled "Miss Bush" by the talented artist James Sharples. Housed in the prestigious Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, this framed colour drawing depicts an enchanting portrait of a young woman whose identity remains unknown. The subject's hair is elegantly tied up with a black ribbon, adding to her allure. Intriguingly, behind Miss Bush's figure lies a sketch of trees, creating a serene backdrop for this mesmerizing composition. However, it is the prominently drawn lyre that steals the spotlight and hints at one of the sitter's interests - music. This delicate instrument symbolizes harmony and artistic expression, further enhancing the depth of this remarkable piece. The skillful use of pastels on grey paper adds softness and subtlety to Miss Bush's features while capturing her beauty with great finesse. The artist has masterfully captured every detail, from her expressive eyes to her graceful posture. Acquired by eBristol Museums, Galleries & Archives in 1931, this timeless artwork continues to captivate viewers today. Its historical significance combined with its aesthetic appeal makes it an invaluable addition to any art collection or exhibition.
