The Artwork
The Lady Of The Parasol Knitting features an elegantly composed woman who appears to have discovered that knitting is considerably more glamorous when undertaken beneath an enormous green parasol.
She wears a dramatic black gown with a vast rounded skirt, its lower edge decorated with a wonderfully lively border of abstract forms in orange, blue, green, purple, and red. A deep purple flourish encircles her waist, while the restrained black silhouette allows the extraordinary decorative details to take center stage.
Above her rises a magnificent green parasol with golden spokes, forming a bold geometric halo against the soft pink background. Its enormous scale gives the scene a delightfully theatrical quality while framing her elaborate dark coiffure and serene expression.
In her hands are knitting needles and a growing piece of red-and-white handiwork. Nearby, a basket holds colorful balls of yarn in green, purple, blue, orange, and red, with loose strands tumbling toward the table and floor. The ordinary pleasures of needlework have been transformed into something wonderfully grand.
Reimagined in contemporary illustrative style, the artwork blends Art Deco fashion illustration, knitting, textile arts, whimsical proportions, parasol elegance, bold geometric shapes, vivid color, and decorative fantasy.
