Fox Fox Fur, c.1920s

One of the classic qualities about Alberto Vargas is that he tends to only hint at a woman's elegance and sensuousness.  Yet this painting communicates so much of his passion and insight. He does not attempt to reveal all the emotion connected with the model; instead, he offers clues that lead the viewers to discover the message for themselves. Through this piece, Alberto lets us personally revere women, and ponder how dull and unexciting life would be without them.
