Description from the seller
Patel depicting the portrait of a young woman and signed.
Jadwiga Matawowska (1874-1963)
It is difficult to find this artist in biographical dictionaries unless you know her other name, Hedda Stoffrengen. This painter, now forgotten, had her heyday in the early 20th century. Despite her name and place of birth, she spent her youth in Warsaw before moving to Paris to study at the Académie Julian under the guidance of Jules Lefebvre and Tony Robert-Fleury. Awarded at the Salon in 1899 and at the 1900 Universal Exposition, she also exhibited with the Society of Polish Artists. Jadwiga Matawowska became known for her portraits of high society, including, for example, those of Empress Alexandra Fedorovna, Queen Elisabeth, and Albert I of Belgium. She also painted Symbolist scenes. She spent the last part of her life in Woluwe Saint-Pierre, a residential suburb of Brussels, in a 1926 modernist villa she commissioned jointly with a certain Teresa Szlenker.
The work is signed at the bottom right.
