Portrait Of A Young Woman, 1940, Oil On Canvas

Chairish

$961

This portrait, attributable to Andrea Scaramucci, represents a young woman portrayed frontally with a serious and thoughtful look. The figure is wrapped in an elegant black dress, with long transparent sleeves that add delicacy to the image. The arms are crossed, a gesture that emphasizes the subject's composure and confidence, giving the composition a sense of introspection and reserve. The color palette is sober, dominated by dark tones and soft shades of gray and pink in the background, which highlight the girl's pale face and intense expression. The dark, wavy hair is neatly combed, framing an oval face with soft, contoured lines. The lips are colored red, accentuating the contrast between the light complexion and the neutral background. The work measures 60 cm in width and 75 cm in height, a dimension that allows us to capture expressive details without overly emphasizing the background, leaving the young woman's face as the focal point. The painting presumably dates back to the 1940s, in line with Scaramucci's participation in the exhibition of the Fascist Interprovincial Fine Arts Union of Umbria in 1942, an event which saw him exhibit a portrait among his works. The painting is framed with a simple golden frame which accentuates its refinement without distracting from the intensity of the portrayed figure.
