Scholarly Commentary
Introduction
Red chalk drawing was one of DGR's characteristic media for finished portrait work. This work has been aptly described as “an outstanding piece of deliquescent draughtsmanship” (see Wildman, Visions of Love and Life, 264 ). See also commentary for the Tate Gallery's pencil drawing.
Pictorial
The contemporaneous drawing of Alexa Wilding is the same size and medium, and can be thought of as a companion to this work.
