Juan Barba (1915–1982) ‘Portrait of a Lady’, 20th century

Ink on paper. A study of a couple dancing in a dynamic and expressive pose, with the woman wearing a flowing dress. Signed “J. Barba” in the lower right corner. The woman is holding or manipulating something in her hands at chest level, with her head slightly tilted in a focused or dramatic pose. The fluidity of the line prioritizes capturing the gesture and atmosphere over detail.
