1930s portraits (No other information known)

In the above portraits, the subjects are wearing hats typical of the 1930s. The straw hat on the right is a porkpie hat, a popular 30s style for both men and women. The wide brim hat on the left has a asymmetrical brim – wider in the front, with a wide satin band that matches the dress.

More on women’s hats of the 1930s in a near-future post!

Jane de Glehn at Cheyne Walk, London, England (1904). Wilfred Gabriel de Glehn (British, 1870-1951). Oil on canvas.

Wilfrid and Jane married in La Rochelle in 1904 and, after a brief honeymoon departed for England where they settled at 73 Cheyne Walk, London. Before the First World War the de Glehns frequently travelled with John Singer Sargent in Europe, and all three, when sketching together, invariably incorporated portraits of each other in their work. Sargent frequently visited the de Glehns' Chelsea house, which became a gathering place for the British Impressionists. Both Jane and Wilfrid exhibited at the Royal Academy and the New English Art Club.
