Helene Schjerfbeck<br />
b. Helsinki 1862, d. 1946<br />
A portrait <strong>of</strong> a <strong>you</strong>ng woman in a blue dress. Signed H. S.<br />
and dedicated to: "Á Ulla Stenman". Charcoal and washed<br />
watercolour on paper. Visible size 44 x 35 cm.<br />
Provenance: Art dealer Stenman's collection.<br />
The portrait representing a <strong>you</strong>ng woman in a blue dress with white<br />
collar has been painted on yellowed lithography paper. Behind the<br />
sheet there is seen a part <strong>of</strong> Helene Schjerfbeck's lithograph "At the<br />
Hearth", which was printed in 1938-39 (see Helene Schjerfbeck,<br />
The Finnish National Gallery Atheneum, 1992, p. 260, no. 424).<br />
Therefore this pastel could not be executed until 1938.<br />
Ulla (Putte) Stenman (later Ulla Fock) may refer to Gösta Stenman's<br />
daughter. However, in another <strong>of</strong> Schjerfbeck's portrait <strong>of</strong> Ulla Fock<br />
(1943) she looks quite different (see image Helene Schjerfbeck, The<br />
Finnish National Gallery Ateneum, 1992, p. 96, nr 476).<br />
The stylized portrait with charcoal and washed watercolour manner<br />
is fairly typical for Helene Schjerfbeck.<br />
