Czóbel Béla , Vöröshajú Lány Zöld Draőéria Előtt 

'Red-Haired Girl Before Green Drapery' was created by Béla Czóbel, who was born in Hungary in 1883. In this intimate portrait, the artist depicts a woman with striking red hair against a muted green backdrop. Czóbel's use of color and brushstroke brings an emotive charge. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Europe, artists began to challenge traditional representations of women. Rather than portraying women as idealized figures, artists like Czóbel began exploring their inner lives and subjective experiences. The woman's gaze is averted, perhaps inward. This choice can be understood as a rejection of the male gaze that had historically dominated artistic representations of women. Czóbel invites us to consider the complexities of female identity and representation, reflecting broader societal shifts in the perception and understanding of women.
