EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Coles Phillips Girl, Illusion" transports us back to the early 20th century, immersing us in the art deco movement. The image showcases a stylish and independent woman seated at a table, blowing soap bubbles with a pipe. Her face exudes wistfulness as she watches the bubbles float away, lost in her own imagination. The girl's beauty is undeniable, with her pretty features and feminine appeal. She embodies an ideal of liberation and sexual freedom that was emerging during this time period. The artwork serves as both advertising and promotional material for magazines of that era. The composition cleverly utilizes negative space to draw attention to the central figure while incorporating decorative elements such as a blue dress and ornamental design on the table. This creates an overall aesthetic that is both lovely and decoish. Intriguingly, there is also a man's face within one of the soap bubbles, suggesting perhaps a missing or imagined lover. This adds depth to the narrative portrayed in this portrait. Overall, this beautiful print captures not only the beauty ideals of its time but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era gone by. It reminds us of the power of art to transport us into different worlds and ignite our imaginations.
