About the piece

Painted in 1902 by the renowned American artist William Merritt Chase, this portrait exemplifies his masterful handling of white-on-white tones and confident, fluid brushwork. The subject is depicted with a contemplative gaze, her figure anchored by a starkly dark background and crowned by an ornate, flower-adorned hat.
