The power of #ART ! Sir John Lavery's portrait captures the essence of the legendary #AnnaPAVLOVA and inspires a budding dancer! #Dance #Ballet
In 1910, the editor of the Illustrated London News commissioned Lavery to paint a portrait of the Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, to advertise her second season at the Palace Theatre. Lavery accepted the request with the stipulation that Pavlova would provide “a reasonable number of sittings and some kind of understanding that appointments would be kept.” Pavlova modeled for Lavery regularly during her time in London. These appointments resulted in the portrait for Illustrated London News, in addition to two full-length painted portraits of Pavlova in her role as Bacchante, including this one here. The second is in the collection of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, Scotland. The beautiful Anna appears in a dynamic dance pose, her dress billowing around her, against a dark background. Her body is angled diagonally and portrayed in mid-motion, her arms outstretched, and legs lifted in a graceful leap. The overall impression is one of movement and energy. The background is a dark, neutral tone that serves to highlight the dancer's life and vitality. The paint application creates a sense of depth and atmosphere. Irish artist Sir John Lavery was best known for his portraiture. In the 1870s, he attended classes at the Haldane Academy of Art while he worked for a Glasgow photographer, retouching photographs. In 1879, he moved to London and took painting classes at Hetherley’s School, where he painted costume models and learned the art of producing marketable backgrounds. Lavery traveled to Paris in 1888, studied at the Académie Julian, and worked alongside international artists. There, his work gained recognition, and by 1888 he was awarded the opportunity to paint Queen Victoria's visit to the International Exhibition in Glasgow during the year of her jubilee. This commission propelled his career and solidified his standing as a distinguished portrait painter.
