EDITORS COMMENTS
This sanguine drawing study, titled "Study of a Woman," showcases the artistic skill and expressive depth of Charles Haslewood Shannon (circa 1863-1937). Dated circa 1921, this masterpiece depicts a woman in various positions of repose - lying on her back and side. The use of sanguine, a rich, earthy red chalk, adds a warm and intimate tone to the drawing, enhancing the sensual and organic quality of the woman's form. The study is believed to have been published in the January 1922 issue of a popular British magazine, Volume 15, though the exact title remains unknown. Shannon's ability to capture the subtle nuances of the female form in such a raw and unfiltered way is a testament to his artistic prowess. His deft touch and keen observation reveal the woman's grace, strength, and vulnerability, making this drawing a timeless work of art. Charles Haslewood Shannon was a renowned English artist, known for his figurative drawings and paintings. His work often explored the human condition and the complexities of the human experience. This Study of a Woman is a prime example of his ability to convey the essence of the human form with both sensitivity and depth. The image invites the viewer to contemplate the woman's inner thoughts and emotions, as she lays in repose, lost in her own world. The study serves as a reminder of the power of art to transport us to another realm, to connect us with the human experience in a profound and meaningful way.
