Portrait of Ann
''Portrait of Anne'' (1957) is a painting by British artist L.S. Lowry (1887-1976). It is one of Lowry's most famous portraits and its subject appears in many Lowry works. Opinion remains divided as to the identity of the subject and her significance for the artist.
==Background==
Lowry was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1955, an appointment that brought him a wider recognition in the art world than he had been previously afforded. On 1 November 1957 he appeared on the front page of the ''Manchester Guardian'' with his proposal for the Academy's Spring Exhibition the following year. Although Lowry had painted portraits before (cf. the 'Horrible Heads' series from the 1930s), ''Portrait of Ann'' was seen as a major departure from Lowry's stock images of industrial scenes and millscapes — not least because Lowry very rarely used women as his subjects. Lowry described the style of the painting as being "modernist", explaining that the sitter "did not want her picture to be realistic; it had to be stylised." In common with Lowry's other oil paintings, ''Ann'' was executed using ivory black, vermilion, prussian blue, yellow ochre and flake white with no medium.
Upon its eventual exhibition, the painting was criticised by the art critic G.S. Whittet in the August 1958 edition of ''The Studio'' as having a "crudely stylised face", but it was not without its supporters; Nesta Ellis, writing for the ''Sphinx'' art journal, thought the painting "gave the impression of an impassive yet willful woman". ''Ann'' was never sold at auction, but instead remained the property of the artist until it was bequeathed to Salford Museum and Art Gallery upon his death in 1976.
