History

1922, Chronology: Exhibited for the first time at the Salon d'Automne: her first portrait of Ira Perrot, with whom she had embarked on a relationship that was to last several years. De Lempicka set up house in an apartment in the Place Wagram where her attentive cousin, Constantin Stiffer, photographed her recent paintings.

Ira PERROT, Family or close friend: Until 1939, Ira Perrot and Lempicka were close friends. Besides sitting for her 1930 portrait (""Portrait of Ira Perrot"" [B.143]), most probably Perrot was also the model for ""Woman in the Black Dress"" (B.31) and ""Her Sadness"" (B.30). The latter work is listed in Kizette de Lempicka-Foxhall's book as ""Portrait of Mrs. P.

History

1919, Chronology: The family moved to Paris, and De Lempicka's parents took up residence in an inexpensive hotel in Passy. Tamara and Tadeusz took temporary refuge in the large apartment of Constantin Stiffer, a cousin. Birth of their daughter Kizette.

Her Daughter KIZETTE, Family or close friend: Lempicka gave birth to her daughter at a very young age. Quite early on, she used Kizette as a model, painting her through a marvelling eye. The five large-scale portraits she did of Kizette, between 1923 and 1933, remain among the most noteworthy of her artistic accomplishments. Baroness de Lempicka-Foxhall, as Kizette has now become, gathered together her recollections and, with the help of Charles Phillips, published them in the form of a biography in 1987: Passion by Design, The Art and Times of Tamara de Lempicka, op.cit.

Notes

(Portrait d'une fillette avec son ourson), Conceivably, it this was this portrait of Kizette, Lempicka's daughter, that went on display at the Bottega di Poesia gallery and was entitled "Ritratto di fanciulla". The teddy bear would reappear in the later "Portrait of Miss Poum Rachou".

History

N/A

Notes

(Femme rousse lisant)
The artist reverted several times to the theme of a woman reading. The choice of a model - with a face so deeply lined by life - ties in with other, equally cruel portraits, testifying to Lempicka's permanent state of anxiety. Although fascinated by beauty, she was at the same time painfully aware of its fleeting nature.

History

The RELIGIOUS FEELING, Biography, Psychology: Religious feeling, intrinsic to Tamara de Lempicka's nature, began showing through in her oeuvre with works such as "Mother and Child" (B.12), although, admittedly, this work in particular was created under the direct influence of Maurice Denis. The moral crisis undergone by the artist from 1934 to 1936 exacerbated this feeling. And, finally, at the end of her life, Lempicka commended her soul to God through her numerous replicas of Madonna and St. Anthony (which, moreover, stood side to side with other copies of the sulfurous Rafaëla).

Notes

(Mère et enfant)
The subject of this study, created under the direct influence of Maurice Denis, is one to which the artist would revert in several later works.

History

Tadeusz LEMPITZKI, Family or close friend: In 1916, in Petrograd (St. Petersburg), Tamara Gorska married Count Tadeusz Lempitzki (or Lempicki, since the nobiliary particle was added later, in France). After jointly emigrating to France with their daughter Kizette, the couple divorced in 1928.

Notes

(Le baiser)
In this painting, Lempicka - striving to personalize her style - experimented with several procedures. Among these, the presence of an urban background (and also a port?), handled in Cubist fashion, would prove especially fruitful. Notice that the man wears the same clothing accessories - a black overcoat, a white scarf, and a top hat - as her husband Tadeusz. Six years later, she would do the latter's full length portrait. The woman whose head is thrown back matches one of the figures in "Group of Four Nudes", 1925 (B.64).

(Portrait d'une jeune femme triste)

A pensive young lady is seated against a background of stylized vegetation. Failing a better hypothesis, this painting could well be the "Portrait of Autumn" listed in the Bottega di Poesia gallery exhibition catalog. It can be likened to those that the artist did of her friend Ira Perrot, especially the one entitled "Her Sadness". A painting identified through a photo of tLempicka's studio taken by her cousin, Constantin Stifter.
