“Hieu, Congai of Phu-Vang” by Jean Despujols (French) - Oil / 1936–1938 - Meadows Museum of Art (Shreveport, Louisiana) #WomenInArt #MeadowsMuseumofArt #JeanDespujols #Despujols #PortraitofaGirl #VietnamArt #art #artText #artwork #arte #BlueskyArt #Portrait #FrenchArtist #MeadowsMuseum #AsianArt
Painted during 1936–1938, this portrait comes from French artist Jean Despujols’ time documenting life in French Indochina. It is shaped by the unequal structures of colonial travel and commissioning, but also by the artist’s insistence on close observation. The title keeps the sitter’s identity tethered to place (“congai” meaning “girl/daughter” in Vietnamese), suggesting a lived geography rather than an anonymous exoticism. Yet the most enduring “story” here is carried by her gaze that is direct, unembellished, and self-possessed. With no distracting props, she becomes the center of meaning with her presence, not the setting, doing the work. She is Hiếu (Hieu), a young Vietnamese woman sitting close to the picture plane against a quiet, warm beige background. Her posture is upright but relaxed, shoulders angled slightly as her head turns toward us. She has a warm medium-light brown complexion and dark brown eyes that meet us with a steady, searching calm. Her black hair is parted at the center and smoothed back into a low, tidy style. Small pearl-like stud earrings catch a pinprick of light. She wears a crisp white, high-collared top that fastens with dark buttons at the neck and shoulder. The fabric is painted with careful shifts of shadow that makes it feel cool and lightly starched. The lighting is soft and even, brightening the bridge of her nose and cheekbones while leaving gentle shadows beneath her chin and along the collar. Her lips are slightly parted, and the overall effect is intimate so it feels less a posed “type” than a person paused mid-thought. Collected by Algur H. Meadows and preserved within the founding Indochina holdings of the Meadows Museum of Art, the painting invites a double reading: as a record produced within its era’s power dynamics, and as a quietly resistant image of individual dignity that still asks us to carefully and ethically look back.

I mean, it's time to move past this, surely? Or at least compare actuals to various IEA scenarios rather than picking the 'no new policies' ones and wrongly asserting that these were IEA "forecasts".
