The artwork titled “Untitled (also known as Alanna)” was created by Robert Henri in 1928. It belongs to the American Realism art movement and falls under the genre of portraiture.
In the artwork, a young child is depicted, possessing a solemn yet contemplative expression. Her rosy cheeks contrast with her pale skin, conveying a lifelike presence. She is dressed in what appears to be a grey coat or cloak, with vibrant red sleeves adding a striking element to her attire. The background of the artwork is dark and muted, allowing the child’s figure and the intensity of her gaze to emerge prominently. The composition and use of shadow and light exemplify the artist’s skill in creating a realistic and compelling portrait. The brushwork is evident, lending a sense of texture and depth to the subjects’ features and clothing.
