One of the Helga Pictures - by Andrew Wyeth [American Contemporary Realist Painter, 1917-2009] The Helga Pictures are a series of more than 240 paintings and drawings of German model Helga Testorf created by Andrew Wyeth between 1971 and 1985. Testorf was a neighbor of Wyeth's in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and over the course of fifteen years posed for Wyeth indoors and out of doors, nude and clothed, in attitudes that reminded writers of figures painted by Botticelli and Edouard Manet. Although Wyeth denied that there had been a physical relationship with Testorf, the secrecy surrounding the sessions and public speculation of an affair created a strain in the Wyeths' marriage. Well after the paintings were finished Testorf remained close to Wyeth and helped care for him in his old age. ________ Second of four generations of Wyeths artists. The best known of the Wyeths, Andrew Wyeth was taught by his father, artist and illustrator N.C. Wyeth. Andrew Wyeth is father of Jamie Wyeth, third generation contemporary realist painter.

"In the portrait of that house, the windows are eyes or pieces of the soul almost. To me, each window is a different part of Christina's life...there's an upstairs window that has a pink feeling. That's her bedroom. I wanted each one of these windows to tell part of the whole story-they were not just stuck in there by chance. Each has its specific role in helping to explain the overall personality of the portrait of the house and its occupants." ...there is a piece of glass that's dropped out of one of the windows, and I was fascinated by the clothes that Alvaro stuffed in a broken pane so the cold wind would't blow through." Alvaro's New England resourcefulness also reveals itself in the the rope and funnel contraption rigged up at the base of the drainpipe to carry water to the bucket outside the kitchen door. Wyeth has even recorded a symbol of his own involvement with the Olson house: Just above the kitchen roof are a few pieces of white siding patched in among the gray clapboards. According to Wyeth, "Those are out of my own house. Alvaro wanted me to repair it and I did" -Andrew Wyeth Andrew Wyeth [American Contemporary Realist Painter, 1917-2009] Second of three generations of Wyeth artists.
