拍品資料及來源
威廉·傑拉德·賀夫卡的作品特徵在於以人體形態為作畫對象。威廉·傑拉德·賀夫卡的創作靈感來自於流露著自然本質的人物，他描繪了他們的肢體語言、面部表情，細膩表現出青年身上那緊緻透光的皮膚質感。此幅《妮·傑德爾》充分地體現威廉·傑拉德·賀夫卡善於在畫面表達對生活的感觸與深厚的人情味。畫中那穿戴著姜涅舞舞者服飾的少女佔據了整幅畫；畫面由偏暖的大地色調夾雜閃耀的金色主導；光線照耀著少女妮·傑德爾的臉部，烘托出手臂與體型的輪廓；烏黑的捲髮襯托出她嬌嫩的頸部與肩膀；此畫的色調相當和諧，卻又不失趣味性。
《妮·傑德爾》創作於1943年11月，相信是威廉·傑拉德·賀夫卡在峇里島最後繪製的其中一幅。同年12月，他已被拘留在附近的西里伯斯島。隨後的1944年，日本攻佔了印尼，對於峇里島島上的居民來説，這是一個動蕩不安的時期，威廉·傑拉德·賀夫卡無憂無慮的生存環境亦隨即中止。這幅《妮·傑德爾》在苦樂參半的時段裏完成，沮喪與希望分秒交織著生活。畫中的少女從觀衆的視線中挪開，遙看著遠處，微微傲慢的神態有著女性的魅力及更多的冷傲。她似乎憶思回峇里島輝煌的過去，想起那島嶼的風光以及藝術家愛戀的當地居民。然而，回到舊日景象卻是遙遙無期。
