Chaim Soutine

La Femme au Grand Chapeau, 1919

 

Renowned for his visceral paintings of animal carcasses, Soutine also made portraits of ordinary working people. 'La Femme au Grand Chapeau' has a regal elegance. With her columnar throat, tilted oval face, and towering hat the figure is both a study of a personality and balancing act of form.
