EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Zita Jungman, a prominent figure in London society during the late 1920s. Painted by Ambrose McEvoy, a renowned artist specializing in women's watercolor portraits, this piece captures the essence of Zita's elegance and style. The delicate skin tones of her face are beautifully complemented by soft grey washes that subtly vary in shade. McEvoy's masterful brushwork accentuates her features with a fluid black stroke along the edge of her face, which gracefully extends downwards to suggest the outline of her body. One can appreciate McEvoy's meticulous attention to detail and controlled tonal relationships throughout his work. In this particular piece, he skillfully highlights Zita's natural beauty while capturing the spirit and allure that made her one of London's "bright young things". Measuring at 38.9x48.3 cm, this stunning portrait is housed at the Laing Art Gallery in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK. It serves as a timeless representation of early 20th-century fashion and style. Zita Jungman (1904-2006) was not only an influential hostess but also Mrs. Arthur James Bob - a name synonymous with sophistication and grace during that era. This print allows us to glimpse into a moment frozen in time when fashion met artistry, resulting in an exquisite portrayal of one remarkable woman.
