Lady in Front of a Mirror by Gerda Wegener

Gerda Wegener, the artist whose life inspired the story of *The Danish Girl*, was a master of capturing the glamour of the 1920s. Here, a chic blonde woman with perfect finger waves and bold red lips lounges before a giant, swirling mirror. The dark, baroque-style frame contrasts beautifully with her light, floral dress, making her look like a modern jewel set in an antique frame. Wegener's background as a top fashion illustrator shines through in the elegant pose and the soft, dreamy colors that feel like a stylish snapshot of the Jazz Age.
