Rita's portraits reflect both technical and spiritual journeys, with some being strictly objective and others highly symbolic. Rutu 1951 Print, painted after Angus recovered from a physical and mental breakdown, is her most imaginative self-portrait.

Rutu is a celebration of a hybrid and uniquely New Zealand culture, merging Christian and Pacific emblems. The depiction of Rutu references many representations of the Virgin Mary, but she has dark skin and fair hair. Her throne is ornamented with shells and lush vegetation, and behind her, the sun looks almost like a halo.

This painting is a challenging and stunning example of Angus's ability to merge different cultures and create something truly unique. It's a must-have for anyone interested in art and culture, and it will undoubtedly leave you in awe.

Frame not included. For your basic framing needs, we suggest considering Factory Frames.

Reproduction prints are as close as possible to the paper sizes available without compromising the aspect ratios of the original artworks.
