EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the essence of youth and playfulness in Kit, one of the artist William Orpen's daughters. Painted in oil around 1921, the young girl is depicted sitting on some rocks outside, wrapped in an oversized white cardigan and wearing a black hat that shades her eyes from the sun. The use of color in the painting is rich and vibrant, with the contrast between the deep hues of the cardigan and the muted tones of the rocks and hat adding depth and texture to the image. At the time this portrait was painted, Orpen was at the height of his career as a prominent Irish painter, known for his portraits and landscapes. His work was frequently featured in prestigious magazines, including a full-page spread in the January 1922 issue of The Studio: An Illustrated Magazine of Fine and Applied Arts, Volume 15. This portrait of Kit is a testament to Orpen's skill in capturing the unique character and spirit of his subjects, and serves as a poignant reminder of the simple joys of childhood. The painting's timeless quality and the girl's enduring expression of curiosity and wonder make it a beloved piece in the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. Whether displayed in a home or office, this portrait is sure to inspire a sense of nostalgia and appreciation for the beauty and innocence of youth.
