Story Behind the Art

Such a fashionable woman might have been spotted at a beach in the French Riviera, Havana in its heyday, or the Hamptons along Long Island’s Gold Coast.

At whichever resort she enjoyed, this woman certainly would have turn heads—appearing both serene and positively refined.

She knows how wonderful she looks. It’s impossible to miss the vibrant and dazzling colors of her Deco-era swimwear or the details of her exquisite bathing cap.

It’s just a seaside elegance you’d expect from the perfect 1920s glamour girl.
