Painting Description
Wyndham Lewis With Cat is a notable painting by avant-garde artist Jessica Dismorr (1885–1939), a vital figure in the Vorticist movement in the early 20th-century British art scene Completed in c. 1919, the portrait depicts Percy Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957), another key figure in the Vorticist movement and a significant influence on Dismorr work.
The painting is largely geometrical, resonating with the modernist aesthetic and the principles of Vorticist style known for its aggressive, geometric depictions breaking away from pictorial illusionism towards abstraction. The portrait presents Wyndham Lewis seated, sporting a monocle and holding a domestic cat. Dismorr has employed dynamic, angular lines and bold colors, capturing the assertive pose and edgy personality of Wyndham Lewis, along with encapsulating the idiosyncrasies of her own artistic style.
Dismorr's choice to include a cat, a less conventional accessory in portraits, adds intrigue. Cats in art often symbolize mystery and resistance to conformity, echoing the maverick spirit of the Vorticists. Furthermore, Dismorr's depiction of Lewis, combined with her signature painting style, seamlessly portrays their shared commitment to the vortex as the energy and core of life, which is central to the Vorticist ethos.
Today, "Wyndham Lewis With Cat" is acknowledged as a significant piece within Dismorr's oeuvre. It captures the innovative and exploratory spirit of the Vorticism movement, and the portrait's ever-evolving stylistic interpretations highlight its enduring relevance in contemporary discourse on early 20th-century British modernism.
