About the Item

This painting is signed lower left. Nan Watson is a female American artist from the early 19th century that is most commonly known for her floral paintings and portraits. As an artist, she demonstrated good draftsmanship, harmonious composition, and fresh color values. Critics described her paintings as sincere, forthright, and direct. Her pieces are included in many famous museums, galleries, and collections. Watson traveled to Paris from New York to study art at the Académie Colarossi, a school that admitted female students and allowed these students to work from live male models. Watson also studied at the art school of the Buffalo Art Students' League. In the fall of 1906, Watson moved to Manhattan to study at the Art Students League of New York and while there took instruction from the well-known portraitist, William Merritt Chase. This work exhibits a very bright and realistic color palette with such serene emotion and detail.
