Easter Monday-Hélène Daurmont is a 1906 unspecified by Walter Sickert, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a woman sitting in a dim room, her face half-lit by a small lamp. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, blending dark blues and greens with patches of yellow and red. The light focuses on her head, leaving the rest of the room shadowy and unclear. The painting feels unfinished, like the artist worked quickly or left parts undone. The signature in the corner reads "Sickert," which matches the artist’s name. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this painting in person.
Walter Richard Sickert (31 May 1860 – 22 January 1942) was a German-born British painter and printmaker who was a member of the Camden Town Group of Post-Impressionist artists in early 20th-century London.
