Anna Pavlova is a 1920 oil by John Lavery, a Impressionism work, held at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.
This painting depicts a woman in a flowing white dress, her arms outstretched and her body arched in a dynamic pose. The background is a muted, dark color that contrasts with the vibrant red of her scarf, which flows behind her like a river of fire. The woman's face is serene, her eyes cast downward as if lost in thought. Her dress is painted in loose, expressive brushstrokes, giving the impression of movement and energy. The overall effect is one of elegance and poise, as if the woman is about to take flight.
