The woman's dark hair and fair complexion anchor the composition, while\nthe image keeps drawing the eye back to her face — an expression that hovers between hesitation and interior thought — punctuated by a touch of blue at her shoulder\nthat glows against the muted, earthy ground.\nTanner worked with an almost dry paintbrush to create the rough, tactile texture throughout\n, giving the surface a quality that feels both immediate and ancient — as if the portrait was made quickly, on-site, in the full press of a city.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile visiting Jerusalem, Tanner painted portraits of the local people and used them as source material for figures in his religious paintings\n— a practice central to his entire mature method.\nThanks to the financial backing of his supporter Rodman Wanamaker, Tanner embarked on the first of several long trips to the Middle East, made in order to familiarize himself with the topography and appearance of people there, increasing the visual authenticity of his biblical subjects through scrupulous attention to original settings and naturalistic details.\nThis portrait belongs to that body of documentary fieldwork:\nTanner's choice to base his human subjects — including figures of scripture — on non-white Middle Eastern models reflects his commitment to realism and his drive to paint a truly inclusive and naturalistic vision.\nWhere comparable portrait studies from the period treat their subjects as ethnographic specimens, this woman is rendered with the full weight of individual presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a painting for walls where silence is welcome. Its modest scale and muted warmth suit a study, a reading room, or a hallway where one encounters it alone — a moment of unexpected eye contact with someone across a century.\nTanner was not limited to one specific approach to painting and drawing; his works reflect at times meticulous attention to detail and loose, expressive brushstrokes, and often both methods are employed simultaneously\n— and that duality is legible here in every roughened, loaded stroke. The viewer it calls to is one who finds more in a face than in a narrative: someone drawn to the unresolved, the observational, the quietly human.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Henry Ossawa Tanner\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFew American painters handled light the way this one did - that cool, almost lunar blue-green glow that turns biblical scenes into something quietly mystical rather than theatrical. Trained under Thomas Eakins at the Pennsylvania Academy in the 1880s, he left the United States for Paris in 1891, where the Salon embraced him and France eventually made him a chevalier of the Legion of Honor. He was the first African American artist to gain serious international standing, and he did it on his own terms, painting religious subjects and North African scenes with a contemplative restraint. His canvases reward slow looking - genuinely meditative work for a noisy century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Henry Ossawa Tanner","offers":[{"title":"18\" x 24\" \/ Stretched Canvas","offer_id":41555053412439,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_18x24_-StretchedCanvas","price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\" x 24\" \/ Fine Art Paper","offer_id":41555053445207,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_18x24_-FineArtPaper","price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\" x 24\" \/ Antiqua Frame","offer_id":41555053477975,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_18x24_-AntiquaFrame","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\" x 24\" \/ Hickory Frame","offer_id":41555053510743,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_18x24_-HickoryFrame","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\" x 24\" \/ Raven Frame","offer_id":41555053543511,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_18x24_-RavenFrame","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24\" x 36\" \/ Stretched Canvas","offer_id":41555053609047,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_24x36_-StretchedCanvas","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24\" x 36\" \/ Fine Art Paper","offer_id":41555053641815,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_24x36_-FineArtPaper","price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24\" x 36\" \/ Antiqua Frame","offer_id":41555053674583,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_24x36_-AntiquaFrame","price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24\" x 36\" \/ Hickory Frame","offer_id":41555053707351,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_24x36_-HickoryFrame","price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36\" x 48\" \/ Stretched Canvas","offer_id":41555053740119,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_36x48_-StretchedCanvas","price":399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36\" x 48\" \/ Fine Art Paper","offer_id":41555053772887,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_36x48_-FineArtPaper","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36\" x 48\" \/ Antiqua Frame","offer_id":41555053805655,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_36x48_-AntiquaFrame","price":499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36\" x 48\" \/ Hickory Frame","offer_id":41555053838423,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_36x48_-HickoryFrame","price":499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24\" x 36\" \/ Raven Frame","offer_id":43298112733271,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_24x36_-RavenFrame","price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36\" x 48\" \/ Raven Frame","offer_id":43298112766039,"sku":"head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner-_36x48_-RavenFrame","price":499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2536\/4678\/products\/fine-art-print-head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-by-henry-ossawa-tanner-1171182381.jpg?v=1749451094","url":"https:\/\/trulyart.com\/products\/head-of-a-woman-in-jerusalem-henry-ossawa-tanner","provider":"Truly Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
