More about this artwork

Arthur Bowen Davies, an influential American artist known for his ethereal works and pivotal role in organizing the 1913 Armory Show, presents a striking study in human form with his 1919 etching, "Profile." Spotlighting the contours and inherent grace of the human profile, this piece is exemplary of Davies' affinity for simplified yet evocative representations.In "Profile," the viewer's eye is drawn to the clear, delicately carved silhouette of a subject's side view. The use of monochrome in this etching adds a profound depth and enigmatic quality, encapsulating an individual's serene yet pensive demeanor. The subject's refined features, from the arch of the eyebrow to the firm line of the jaw, are rendered with precision, allowing an interplay of light and shadow to sculpt the face naturally.The textured background contrasts subtly with the smooth and detailed inking of the profile, emphasizing the subject's elegant and imminent presence. This artwork invites the observer to consider not only the physical beauty but also the internal contemplation captured in the fleeting moment of Davies' etching.
