Summary:
Alexander Charles Robinson, also known as Charles Alexander Robinson (British/Scottish, 1867–1952). Seated Girl. Pastel depicting a young girl seated in a colorful domestic interior, wearing a black hat.

Robinson was a Scottish-born painter and pastellist who worked principally in portraiture, figure subjects, and landscapes. His work frequently employed a loose, atmospheric handling of color, particularly well suited to the pastel medium. In the present work, layered strokes of turquoise, coral, pink, blue, and green create a lively surface while the darker architectural lines of the window and interior provide structure to the composition.
