Self Portrait with Cat
This stunning Scottish 1920's self portrait oil painting is by noted Scottish female artist Helen Mackenzie. Painted circa 1929 the composition is the head and shoulders of the artist looking at colourful flowers in a vase with a beautiful white cat stretched out on the back of the sofa behind her. She is wearing a white off the shoulder dress and clasping a pendant to her chest. The brushwork and heavy impasto are superb and this shows all the attributes of the Scottish School and Colourist tradition.
