EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pencil study, titled "Portrait of a Lady," is a captivating work of art from the early 20th century. Circa 1925, the portrait was skillfully created by the talented hand of George Washington Lambert, an Australian artist known for his mastery of various mediums, including pencil. The subject of the portrait is a lady, her gaze fixed in a thoughtful, downwards direction. Her features are rendered with remarkable detail and sensitivity, from the delicate contours of her face to the intricate textures of her clothing. The artist's use of pencil allows for a level of nuance and subtlety that is particularly well-suited to capturing the intricacies of the human form. The portrait is part of the "March of the Women Collection" from Mary Evans Prints Online, a vast archive of historical and artistic treasures. The collection is named for the suffragette movement, which gained momentum in the early 20th century, and this portrait could be seen as a testament to the strength and resilience of women during that time. George Washington Lambert was born in 1873 in New South Wales, Australia, and studied under Julian Ashton at the Sydney Art School. He went on to exhibit his work in Sydney, London, and Paris, and was a founding member of the Contemporary Art Society in Sydney. Lambert's work spanned a range of subjects and mediums, from landscapes and portraits to still lifes and figurative studies. His mastery of pencil is particularly evident in this beautiful portrait of a lady, a work of art that continues to captivate and inspire viewers today.
