The painting of The Red-Haired Woman/The Irish Woman is a kind of utopian image of how the artist would have liked to see himself. Her fiery red hair radiates an almost mythical energy, an inner fire that symbolises passion, power and mystery. This natural red contrasts beautifully with the green of her dress, a reflection of the Irish landscape with its rugged, untouched nature.
Her face is light and delicate, almost unreal in its beauty. The soft freckles, subtly scattered across her skin, give her a dreamy look, as if from another world. This play between reality and fantasy makes her presence on the canvas all the more enchanting.
The combination of the deep red and powerful green creates an intense dynamic in the painting. The red symbolises passion and fire, while the green exudes a connection with nature and a certain serenity. The strong black in the background also makes the mysticism of the face stand out more strongly. Together, these colours form a harmonious yet contrasting balance that brings the portrait to life.
In this work, the artist has painted not just a woman, but an ideal image - a personification of passion, nature and dream world in one enchanting figure.
