Romaine Brooks ~ Peter (A Young English Girl), 1923-1924, oil on canvas SAAM-1970.70_2

Peter depicts British painter Hannah Gluckstein, heir to a catering empire who adopted the genderless professional name Gluck in the early 1920s. By the time Brooks met her at one of Natalie Barney's literary salons, Gluckstein had begun using the name Peyter (Peter) Gluck. She unapologetically wore men's suits and fedoras, clearly asserting the association between androgyny and lesbian identity. Brooks's carefully nuanced palette and quiet, empty space produced an image of refined and austere modernity. ~ The Art of Romaine Brooks, 2016

feeling very keenly today the way that gender transgressors from the past have such larger-than-life personalities -- the way their disobedience and outlawism creates fantastic, heroic, eccentric revolutionaries and how that language plays into modern day mythologies without attaching itself to the people who created the language in the first place (ex. rebels against The System) and how many of these people came from poverty or even slavery and how many were sex workers at one time or another and how many were considered mad by their peers and how many of them existed along axes of oppression

Medallion (1937) by Gluck

This portrait depicting gender non-conforming lesbian artist Gluck (right) alongside lover Nesta Obermer (left) was inspired by a night out when the pair attended a production of Mozart’s Don Giovanni. The artist referred to this piece as the “YouWe” picture.

“They sat together in the third row and felt the intensity of the music fused them both into one person and matched their love.”
