A kore is a Greek maiden. In this painting Kore has an archaic smile, like a greek statue. Her red hair is a nod to a roommate of Cooper's and also references the muses with "Poppy Red Hair" in Apollo Takes Charge Of The Muses, one of the poems in Archaic Smile: Poems a book by A. E. Stallings (of which the other Kore painting Kore With Headphones and Pomegranate is the cover image).
