My Studio
Raphael Soyer
"In this lithograph, Raphael Soyer represented himself at work on a portrait of a model, while his subject dresses in the foreground. The artist’s face is turned, and his portrait is characterized not by his features but by the vigor with which he works. The print captures the isolation that pervades the urban scenes Soyer painted in the 1940s. Even as the artist delights in the form of his model’s body on his canvas, he is entirely separated from her physical presence in his studio."

I really love this. I recently watched an old movie on TCM about an artist and his model, only he was sculpting her…apparently consumed with his work of art, oblivious to the stunning woman in his studio.

I love art like this where you can kind of create your own narrative to go along with it.

I think that’s true, it’s something that’s very relatable.
