About the piece
Painted in 1906 by Harrington Mann, this soulful portrait depicts the artist's daughter, Cathleen. The work showcases Mann’s masterful handling of light and texture, particularly in the subtle sheen of the girl’s tiered skirt and the soft, expressive features framed by her decorative hat. It is a quintessential example of turn-of-the-century tonalist portraiture.
