The artist behind this striking and original Art Deco portrait -- Agnes Tait -- is clearly emphasizing the parallels between a female figure and her Siamese cat, both shown with heavily-shadowed blue eyes and short, dark hair, the feline crouching familiarly on the shoulder of her companion. Because Tait painted a series of portraits for Florenz Ziegfeld of the young women who performed in the Ziegfeld Follies in 1932, it's possible that the figure here was one of her subjects. The woman is wearing an elegant black gown that bares her upper chest, and the background is a lovely shade of reddish purple. Tait was a native New Yorker, studying in her youth at the National Academy of Design under Leon Kroll and others, before becoming a WPA painter in the 1930s. She painted a series of tropical scenes for the United Fruit Company...

Art Deco style painting of a woman before a mirror, oil on canvas, France, 20th century. This oil painting on canvas depicts an elegant woman observing her reflection in a mirror, in a composition directly inspired by the Art Deco aesthetic. The work features a sophisticated female figure dressed in a red gown and a flowing cape, characteristic of 1920s and 1930s fashion. The interplay between the figure, seen from behind, and her reflection creates a dynamic and refined composition, while the simplified forms, strong contours, and flat planes of color recall fashion illustrations and decorative posters of the period. The red, ivory, black, and ochre tones bring contrast and elegance to the whole. Presented in a gilt frame, this decorative work evokes the world of luxury, femininity, and glamour inherent to Art Deco. It is an ideal statement piece to enhance a vintage or contemporary décor.
