Woman I is the first in the group of Woman paintings that de Kooning began in 1950. The works are influenced by sources ranging from Paleolithic fertility fetishes to American billboard advertisements, and the attributes of this particular figure seem to include both the vengeful power of the goddess and the hollow seductiveness of the calendar ...
Between 1950 and 1953, de Kooning made the series for which he is best known, the Women, and this painting from approximately 1952 is a fine example of the subject. The small scale of this painting on paper belies both the potency of the iconic image and the dramatic dynamism of the vigorous, gestural brushwork.

crucial to de Kooning’s handling of paint in the Woman series was confirmed by de Kooning himself. Beyond such direct testi-mony, it might also be noted how closely the hands of Woman, II resemble those in Soutine’s Woman in Red (fig. 7). De Kooning spent more concentrated effort on Woman, I than on any other canvas of his career.
