Madge Tennent once shared/stated, as had Pablo Picasso, that all great art begins with skillful drawing. In this Portrait of a Woman, the curving contour line defines her elegant, intriguing face with accuracy. Tennent was so facile at painting in ink, gouache, or oil that she could render the most complex poses with singular lines and intentional draftsmanship. With silver ink on blue paper, she displayed her virtuosity in bringing her subjects to life.
