Wide Eyes - The Lost One

1974

Mid-century female illustrator/artist Gladys Rockmore Davis paints a compelling portrait of a contemplative beauty who looks like Elizabeth Taylor.

Her hypnotic gaze is counterbalanced by the lateral movement of her crossed hands and triggers an emotional response.

Davis had a show at the prestigious Midtown Gallery and Babcock Gallery in New York. She studied at the California School of Fine Arts, Art Institute of Chicago, and Art Students League. William R.
