About the Item

'The Red Headdress', pastel on art paper, by W. Worms (circa 1960s). A beautiful woman with contemplative expression and tender eyes is exquisitely portrayed by the artist. The treatment of light and colour in the piece is masterful and expresses the artist's tenderness for his subject as well as his deftness with the medium. One may suppose a close connection between artist and subject. Certainly a thought-provoking portrait of a fascinating subject. Discovered in the South of France, the signature is 'W. Worms' which may be of Alsatian or German origin. Research about the artist is inconclusive. The painting is newly framed and glazed with anti-reflective glass. Please enjoy the many photos accompanying this listing. Upon request a video of the artwork may be provided. Dimensions with frame: H 47 cm / 18.5" W 38 cm / 15" Dimensions without frame: H 31.5 cm / 12.4" W 23.5 cm / 9.3"
