Christian Schad - Anna Gabbioneta [1927]

 


Christian Schad - Anna Gabbioneta [1927]

Painted in 1927, Anna Gabbioneta displays all the clarity and precision of the objective style of portraiture that Schad perfected during this period of his career, his elegant subject sharply observed and bathed in a soft, even light, as she sits in front of a quiet townscape. Schad conveys a sense of the young woman’s intensity and focus, her gaze almost hypnotic as she stares directly out from the canvas at the viewer. Placed against a backdrop of simple, domestic buildings crowded together, Gabbioneta appears to hold herself perfectly still, her poise and fashionable attire at odds with her surroundings.

[Christie’s, New York - Oil on canvas, 76.8 x 55.5 cm]
