About the piece
Painted in 1911 by Jacques-Émile Blanche, this oil portrait depicts American socialite and arts patron Mabel Dodge at the Villa Curonia in Florence. The work exemplifies the Belle Époque style with its fluid, impressionistic brushwork and a rich contrast between the luminous warm tones of the dress and the cool teals of the setting.
