Story Behind the Art
A thoroughly modern woman enjoys her fine Cuban cigarette, while an iridescent parrot perches beside her, curious about the curl of rising smoke.
Notice the woman's elegant pose, the decorative patterns in the art, and those brilliant color blocks that make this pure Art Deco glamour.
This scene captures the sophisticated leisure of Havana during the 1920s, where tropical heat met international style.
Cuba’s exotic atmosphere allowed women many more freedoms than they might find back home — like smoking and flirting wherever they pleased.
