"Jean In A Black Hat, First State (m. 187)" is a notable work by the American realist painter and lithographer George Wesley Bellows, created in the early 20th century. Bellows, born in 1882, is renowned for his dynamic depictions of urban life in New York City, as well as his powerful portrayals of athletic events, particularly boxing matches. His work is characterized by vigorous brushstrokes, dramatic contrasts of light and shadow, and a keen eye for the human condition.

"Jean In A Black Hat, First State" exemplifies Bellows' skill in capturing the subtleties of human expression and the elegance of portraiture. The subject of the piece, Jean, is depicted wearing a stylish black hat that adds an air of sophistication and mystery to her persona. The term "First State" refers to the initial version or proof of the print, indicating that this particular piece is an early iteration of Bellows' vision for the portrait.

Bellows' use of lithography in this work showcases his versatility and mastery of different artistic mediums. Lithography, a printmaking technique based on the immiscibility of oil and water, allows for a high degree of detail and texture, which Bellows exploits to bring Jean's likeness to life. The careful rendering of her features, combined with the bold, dark lines of the hat, creates a striking contrast that draws the viewer's attention to her face.

The portrait reflects Bellows' interest in capturing the essence of his subjects, often imbuing them with a sense of individuality and presence. "Jean In A Black Hat, First State" is a testament to Bellows' ability to blend technical proficiency with emotional depth, making it a significant piece within his broader oeuvre. This work not only highlights Bellows' talent as a portraitist but also his contribution to the American art scene during a period of significant cultural and social change.
