The Amazon by John Lavery Art Print

A woman in riding dress, painted at full length and full confidence. John Lavery called the picture The Amazon.

The riding habit is the whole performance — black, close cut, and lit so that it reads as a single shape from across a room. Lavery understood that a portrait is seen from twelve feet before it is seen from two.

He was among the highest-paid portraitists in Britain by the 1910s, having started out painting Glasgow shipyards and Ayrshire fields.
