Jerry Ross's oil Portrait of Erina is a depiction of a woman that defies popular femininity yet defines who she is, as a woman, boldly. The label describes it as an oil painting of an Italian nonna from Tuscany, thereby setting up the viewer to witness her as not only female but as a matriarchal figure. However, she is depicted outside of any motherly or grandmotherly setting, standing alone, with an expression that is the antithesis of the soft, submissive, and nurturing female stereotype. Critical Review of painting: http://jerryrosspittore.com/analysis2.htm Note: This painting was originally titled "Fiorella" (flower) which is the name of her daughter. The sitter's actual name is Irene but I am still not certain of the exact spelling in Italian, so I have decided to just call it Nonna Tucana -- Tuscan grandmother. She passed away recently at the age of 94. Her grandson, Stefano Goracci , is a collector of my artwork.
