About An Indian Woman (In Green Sari) Irma Stern Portrait Painting
Previously titled Malay Lady in Green, the Indian woman in this portrait is more likely a member of the modern South African Indian community of Natal (now Kwa-Zulu Natal), who arrived from the Indian sub-continent from the 19th century onwards, initially as indentured labourers to work on the sugarcane plantations of Natal Colony and later as traders. While the date on the canvas is ambiguous and could read as 1930 or 1936, the work is far more representative of the artist’s more mature style of the mid-1930s, after her seminal 1931 stay on Madeira. An exhibition at the Durban Art Gallery brought Stern back to Durban in 1935 (she had visited Natal twice in the 1920s), and she writes in her letters to the Feldmans of her frustration at not finding the Zululand of yesteryear, “this is my last trip trying to find things that are dying out” (letter to Richard and Freda, 25 February 1935). Instead, she evidently found inspiration in the women of Indian ancestry living along the East African coastline. About the Canvas Prints
