A refined and striking composition by Harry Charles Tim, Adrianna forms part of the artist’s acclaimed Longhead Series — a body of work celebrated for its elegant abstraction and emotive restraint.
Rendered in a confident, sculptural style, Adrianna depicts a stylised female figure distinguished by her elongated features and poised stillness. The artist’s use of a deep, muted ground contrasts beautifully with the warmth of the sitter’s copper tones and vivid vermilion dress, achieving a sense of both quiet intensity and timeless modernity.
Harry Charles Tim brushwork reveals a mastery of surface and tone — layered, expressive, and yet deliberately economical — inviting the viewer into a contemplative exchange with the subject. Signed by the artist and presented in a complementary gilt-edged frame, this work is an exceptional example of Tim’s modernist portraiture.
Adrianna stands in dialogue with the artist’s other notable works, including Head Mistress, Chloe, and Agata, each exploring individuality through his distinctive elongated forms and refined palette.
Collectors of mid-century and contemporary British art will appreciate Tim’s rare ability to fuse emotional depth with formal simplicity — a hallmark of enduring modernist portraiture.
