About the Item

This fresh and vibrant portrait of a young woman with glowing blond hair and a blue 1940s frock is one of the finest World War II vintage portraits we have ever offered. Her complexion is rosy and lovely, her arms and hands are beautifully captured, and she looks into the distance with all the calm and hope of American youth. The painting is oil on canvas, and is stretched but not framed. It is unsigned.
