Clare Madame Mar18 Sculptor Sculptress Sheridan Traveller Yevonde
EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enigmatic and intellectual spirit of Clare Sheridan, an English sculptress, traveller, and writer, as immortalized by the renowned British photographer Madame Yevonde in 1927. Born as Clare Consuelo Frewen, Sheridan defied societal expectations by pursuing a career in the arts and travel, which took her to far-flung locales around the world. Her sculptures, characterized by their organic forms and intricate details, were exhibited in galleries across Europe and the United States. In this portrait, Sheridan's piercing gaze and intense expression convey a sense of determination and creativity. Her fashionable yet androgynous attire, with its high-waisted trousers and tailored jacket, reflects the modern and liberated spirit of the 1920s. The soft focus and dramatic lighting used by Madame Yevonde further accentuate Sheridan's striking features and add an air of mystery to the image. As a writer, Sheridan published several travel books, including "The Secret Vale" and "The Golden Calf," which chronicled her adventures and discoveries in Egypt and Greece. Her multifaceted talents and fearless spirit made her a trailblazer for women in the arts and travel industries, and her legacy continues to inspire artists and adventurers alike. This evocative portrait offers a glimpse into the complex and intriguing world of Clare Sheridan, a true icon of the 1920s.
