A bold and defiant portrait of Jessica “Decca” Mitford—Communist, investigative journalist, and unapologetic dissenter—captured in a style as uncompromising as her politics.

Features:

  • Art Style: Post-war modernism influenced by David Bomberg’s raw energy and Ben Shahn’s activist linework.
  • Mood & Palette: Dominant reds and inky blacks channel protest, rebellion, and fiery conviction.
  • Expression: Sharp-eyed and fearless—Jessica’s gaze cuts through pretension and injustice alike.
  • Attire Detail: Functional 1940s garb meets bohemian defiance, reflecting her journey from aristocrat to American radical.
