By the early 1930s, the artist had returned to figurative painting, yet he maintained the geometric rigour and flat colour planes that defined his earlier Suprematist experiments. This work depicts a female figure with a stylised, mask-like face, rendered in pale, neutral tones that contrast with the bold, block-like colours of her clothing.\n\nThe composition relies on a strict frontality. The subject stares directly at the viewer, her expression calm and detached. Malevich employs a palette of primary colours, including red, blue, and yellow, alongside deep green and black, to construct the figure. These shapes do not suggest volume or depth in a traditional sense. Instead, they function as flat, interlocking planes that build the form of the subject. The comb in her hair serves as a graphic element, echoing the horizontal lines found elsewhere in the composition.\n\nThis painting reflects the artist's transition away from pure abstraction towards a synthesis of his earlier geometric theories and representational subjects. The figure is reduced to its essential components, stripped of unnecessary detail or atmospheric perspective. The result is a portrait that feels both archaic and modern, drawing inspiration from Russian icon painting while adhering to the formalist principles of the twentieth century. The starkness of the background ensures that the focus remains entirely on the figure, whose presence is defined by the arrangement of colour and shape rather than psychological depth. It is a clear example of how Malevich applied his analytical approach to the human form, treating the body as a structure to be organised according to his specific aesthetic logic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/architectonic-painting-liubov-popova\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eArchitectonic Painting - Liubov Popova — Liubov Popova\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/beat-the-whites-with-the-red-wedge-el-lissitzky-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eBeat the Whites with the Red Wedge - El Lissitzky — El Lissitzky\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kazimir Malevich","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57872989552975,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57873074487631,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57873074520399,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57873074553167,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57873074585935,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Girl-with-a-Comb-in-her-Hair_Poster_CompositorV1_1780883296124.jpg?v=1780897700","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/girl-with-a-comb-in-her-hair-kazimir-malevich","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
