Model with Fan and Shawl 1919

Gerda Wegener's "Model with Fan and Shawl" from 1919 is a captivating portrait of a woman in profile, rendered in delicate shades of brown and white. The subject is depicted with her head turned away from the viewer, her gaze lost in thought, a fan held gracefully in her hand. The delicate details, particularly the delicate fan and the flowing shawl, are a testament to Wegener's skill as a draftsman and illustrate the aesthetic of early 20th-century portraiture. This piece offers a glimpse into Wegener's artistic style and her fascination with the feminine form.
