Updated September 23, 2026

Title: Woman in a Green Hat Technique: Watercolor on paper Measures: 17 x 13 inches (43.2 x 33 cm) Year: Undated Condition: Good condition. The sheet presents well-preserved coloration with layered washes and visible gestural passages throughout. Minor handling wear, gentle waviness, and light age-related toning consistent with the medium may be present. The paper appears stable and display-ready, retaining its muted palette and overall visual impact. Presented under glazing in a decorative brown and gold-tone frame showing light age-related wear. Provenance: From a private collection in Miami, Florida. No additional ownership or acquisition records accompanied the work when it was received for cataloging. Visual Description: This vertical portrait depicts an elegantly dressed woman wearing a broad green hat and a dark floral-patterned garment. Her elongated neck, narrow face, almond-shaped blue eyes, and small pursed mouth create a quiet, introspective expression. Soft passages of ochre, green, gray, blue, and muted red define the sitter against a loosely rendered interior background. Layered watercolor washes and gestural passages give the composition a fluid, atmospheric character, while the simplified facial features and attenuated proportions establish a sense of stylized elegance. The restrained palette, linear treatment of the figure, elongated anatomy, and contemplative psychological presence evoke the portrait vocabulary associated with early 20th-century European modernism. This composition reflects stylistic elements commonly associated with major figures in modern and contemporary art.
