Bernard Sanders, Portrait of Woman (with Bun), about 1925

1925

About the Item

Bernard Sanders (1906-1967) was an extremely gifted portrait artist. and a master at showing us the sitter's age. This is clearly not a young woman. She's, well, early middle age? Forty? But Sanders is so careful to indicate that she's a gown up - the plain clothes and hair style make that clear. This work is signed in pencil under the image and titled in pencil in the lower left margin. It is also signed in the plate at the upper left.
