Om værket

Grete Stern made this engaging portrait of her later business partner Ellen Auerbach, nicknamed "Pit," in 1929, when they were both art students in Berlin. Auerbach, then twenty-three years old, appears as a modern woman with bobbed hair, meeting the viewer's gaze head-on. The combination of the overhead perspective and the use of close-up, as well as the graphic patterning of Auerbach's clothing and the background, positions this image as a progressive portrait of one of a new breed of urban women who were moving away from traditional female roles.
