About the piece

Painted in 1913, this captivating oil portrait by American artist Lilla Cabot Perry showcases her masterful handling of light and texture. The subject’s bold, wide-brimmed black hat, adorned with a vivid green silk ornament, creates a dramatic silhouette against the dappled neutral background, while the soft rendering of her face and the tactile fur of her cloak reflect Perry's Impressionist influences.
