The collection then shifts focus to celebrate feminine beauty with two nude portrayals from different eras. The first captures a young woman between 1875-1885 – her vulnerability juxtaposed against her inherent strength creates an intriguing narrative within itself. In contrast, we are introduced to another young black woman from 1895-1905 - defying societal norms and embracing her individuality amidst adversity. Her portrait challenges conventional standards while celebrating diversity and empowerment. A self-portrait adds depth to this compilation; painted by an artist at 69 years old, it reveals a lifetime of experiences etched onto the canvas.
