Autoportrait (Tamara in a Green Bugatti)
''Autoportrait (Tamara in a Green Bugatti)'' is a self-portrait painting done by Polish artist Tamara de Lempicka. This oil-on-panel, 35x27cm painting was one of her smaller portraitures but gained her reputable titles in the art world such as “baron with a brush”, “modern Venus”, “female painter of females”, and more. In many of her paintings, including ''Autoportrait'', there is a presence of alluring Caravaggesque lighting and a perfect balance of both delicacy and strength as if her subjects were painted with a sculptor’s eye.〔Blondel and Brugger, ''Tamara de Lempicka: Art Deco Icon," 18-21.〕 In 1929, after having the painting published as the cover of ''Die Dame'', a German fashion magazine; her self-portrait became known as the “hymn of the modern woman” for it would inspire the imagery of an emancipated woman.〔Blondel and Brugger, "Tamara de Lempicka: Art Deco Icon," 33.〕
==The Artist==
Tamara was surrounded by a life of leisure, growing up in an aristocratic family in Warsaw, Poland. As a child, she traveled around Italy and St. Petersburg with her aunt and was inspired by art exhibitions she found there.〔Gioia Mori, "Tamara de Lempicka: The Queen of Modern," 22.〕 Always having her passion for painting by her side, she found life to be more comfortable as a young house wife and focused her attention on her new Russian husband Tadeusz de Lempicki. However, plans changed dramatically whenever the Bolshevik party came to power in Russia around 1917. Her husband Tadeusz was arrested by Cheka forces and Tamara spent weeks trying to locate him, successfully rescuing him after her toiling search.〔Kizette De Lempicka-Foxhall and Charles Phillips, "Passion by Design: The Art and Times of Tamara De Lempicka," 30. 〕 While fleeing from the civil chaos in Russia, Tamara and Tadeusz (along with her newborn daughter Kizette) found themselves in a pack of other Russian émigrés in Paris, France. After settling in Paris in 1918, Tamara decided to “follow the hunger” and began studying painting to transform her passion into a profession.〔Kizette De Lempicka-Foxhall and Charles Phillips, "Passion by Design: The Art and Times of Tamara De Lempicka," 38.〕
